Ruel & Johannah Tyer

It all started when…

We were encouraged, a few years ago, by another couple to dream about how we could use our gifting in caring for people together. At that point, we had faced several years of difficult trials and unbeknownst to us still had a few more long years of trials ahead. As we sought to work on our marriage, which was being tested majorly from all angles, we took the counsel of this wise couple and decided to intentionally create time and space in our lives to dream. Dreaming together became life-giving for us, whereas the many trials we faced were draining and exhausting. As we dreamed, we came up with various ideas of how we could work together, and serve God as a unified couple. One particular dream that kept emerging was that of caring for couples, and as we spent time praying about the idea we became filled with excitement. It was as though caring for couples together became a magnetic force that we could not ignore. As we started to share our dream with other people we received confirmation from many others that this indeed was a direction worth pursuing.

Johannah is a natural when it comes to caring for people. Her innate ability to tune into people and be fully present with them while asking thought-provoking questions is a skill not many people can learn. If there was ever a naturally born person to care for people then it would be Johannah. She exudes wisdom and discernment that are beyond her years.

Ruel’s wisdom, grace, and insight have had an impact on many individuals and couples in their relationships with the Lord and others. His love for Jesus and His Word combined with his laid-back demeanor and presence put everyone at ease. It’s clear from even a short encounter with Ruel that he is a man who loves the Lord and others, and it’s evident in his words, manner, and life.

Hopefully one can see how moving towards caring for people together began to make sense given Johannah’s natural gifting and Ruel’s profession as a counselor. Over the years we have had opportunities to care for individuals and couples together. In doing so we began to notice how well we worked alongside one another, as well as how enjoyable it was for us. We have also faced more than our fair share of marital struggles, despite our youthful 9 years of marriage. We have sat across from numerous helping professionals to aid us in working through various marital struggles. We’ve also benefited greatly from learning to implement EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy) within our marriage. The by-product of our dreaming along with our marital struggles and the support we received has led us to coaching couples. We believe that reconnecting couples to one another have an impact on not just this generation but many generations to come. Coaching allows us to care for couples across the country and world.
