One of the greatest problems married couples seem to have is mixing marriage with their careers. You don’t have to be in this boat anymore! You can have the best marriage and support each other’s careers.![]()
Hello, my name is Daphne Crause, and I consider myself the most blessed wife in the world! Let me tell you why I say this. My StoryI am married to Les D. Crause, the apostle and founder of this ministry. We have been together for almost 19 years now, and it has been the best time of my life! One thing I learned early on in our marriage, is that like anything else in life it doesn’t just ‘fall into your lap’. Yes, we had to work on it, but it was not difficult, and the Lord showed me some easy things to do to make it sing! After a while I realized that we had perhaps done things differently to the norm. We firstly committed ourselves spiritually to each other from the start. Then once we had a solid base of commitment and the Lord was at the center of our relationship, then the feelings began to grow until we were inseparable! Secrets to a Great MarriageAs I looked at the marriages of many people we met and others that I knew, I realized that there were so many whose marriages were sadly lacking. Some of the couples were career-minded and put all their efforts into their jobs, rather than their relationships. Others, especially women, put all their efforts into their children, and tended to let go of their relationship with their husband. Then when the children left home there is no relationship with their spouse and their life falls apart. You don’t have to be in this situation! Even if you are a stay-at-home mom or a career woman, you can still have an awesome marriage. In this website I would like to show you how to accomplish this. 2 Emerging MinistriesRight after we were married and I began to develop more in ministry, two things began to show up. The first one was a zeal for prayer and a desire to grow in this. Les and I began to pray together every morning before work, right up until the time that our son was born. It was an exciting time for me and I grew greatly in it. This was the beginning of a big vision that the Lord gave me. The second thing that I discovered was that I was pastoral at heart. I just loved motivating and encouraging people! During my life I have experienced loneliness, the pain of being widowed, rejected, etc. But I have also seen how just one small word of encouragement at the exact right time can make such a difference!
