The fine print

Disclaimer

Effective [CONFIRM date]

We started The Redeemed Marriage to share the hope we were given when our own marriage nearly ended. We want you to know clearly what we offer and what we don’t, so you can get the right kind of help for your marriage.

Get help right away if anyone is in danger

  • If you or anyone else is in immediate danger, call 911.
  • If there is abuse in your relationship, whether physical, sexual, emotional or financial, threats or controlling behavior, contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline. Call 1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788. It is free, confidential and open 24 hours a day.
  • If you are thinking about suicide or are in a mental health crisis, call or text 988 to reach the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, any time of day or night.

Coaching is not a substitute for safety planning. Couples coaching may not be safe when one spouse is abusing or controlling the other, so please talk with a domestic violence advocate first. They can help you make a plan to stay safe. If we learn that someone is being abused or is at risk of harm, we may pause or decline coaching and encourage you to reach out to these services.

If you’re worried that someone watches your phone or computer, use a device they can’t access when you look for help.

Not counseling, therapy or professional advice

The Redeemed Marriage offers faith-based marriage coaching, mentoring, teaching and encouragement. Nothing on our site or in our podcast, PDFs, emails, coaching sessions, Monthly Mentoring, Marriage Intensives or retreats is:

  • counseling, therapy or psychological treatment;
  • medical advice, diagnosis or treatment;
  • legal advice, including about separation, divorce or custody;
  • financial advice.

Working with us does not create a counselor-client, therapist-patient or attorney-client relationship.

Always seek the advice of a qualified professional about your own situation, and never ignore or put off professional advice because of something you read, heard or watched here. Our own healing took place over several years through counseling, mentors, retreats and a marriage intensive. We encourage you to get professional support alongside anything we offer.

Who we are and what we share

Rusty and Heather Bryant share from their personal experience and their Christian faith. [CONFIRM: Rusty and Heather’s training or certifications, if any, or a plain statement that they are not licensed counselors or therapists.]

What helped us may not be right for every couple. Please weigh what we share with prayer, wise counsel and your own judgment.

No guaranteed results

Every marriage is different. We believe in hope and healing, but we can’t promise any particular result, including that your marriage will be restored. Outcomes depend on many things outside our control, including the choices of both spouses.

Podcast and guest views

Our podcast and videos are for encouragement and general education. Guests share their own stories and opinions, which may not reflect ours. A guest’s appearance on the show is not an endorsement of their services, products or advice.

We have recorded hundreds of episodes over the years, so older episodes may mention information or resources that have since changed.

Testimonials

Testimonials on our site reflect the individual experiences of the people who shared them. They are not a promise that you will have the same experience or results.

Our site, podcast and emails may link to other websites, books, products or resources. We don’t control those sites and are not responsible for their content.

Some links may be affiliate links. If you buy through one, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.

Use at your own risk

We share our content in good faith and work to keep it accurate, but it may contain errors or become out of date. You are responsible for how you use it and for the decisions you make. To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for any loss or harm that comes from relying on our site, podcast, resources or services. Our Terms of Use explain this in more detail.

Changes to this disclaimer

We may update this disclaimer from time to time. When we do, we will post the new version on this page and change the effective date at the top.
