The page in the printed workbook

Session Two of the coil-⁠bound workbook, printed from the same files as the website, with a word bank to circle and ruled lines to write on.

The same Core Values section on the website, with four words selected in the word bank and boxes to type into

The same page online

On the website the word bank is tappable and the lines become boxes. Answers are saved in the reader’s own browser, with no account and nothing sent anywhere.

The problem

The problem

Most marriage programs end when the retreat does. The workbook goes on a shelf, and the momentum goes with it. The ministry wanted its eight-⁠session curriculum to be something couples come back to, warm and private, never gamified, and they wanted to keep editing it themselves without breaking anything.

What we built

What we built

One set of source files now produces the curriculum’s website, a print-⁠ready coil-⁠bound workbook, a home-⁠print edition and a premarital edition. QR codes in the printed books point at the site’s own short links, so a book already on someone’s shelf keeps working when a link moves. The ministry edits the curriculum itself with an AI coding assistant, following instructions we wrote, and the site won’t publish a change that would erase answers a reader has already saved. Alongside the workbook is an iPhone app where each spouse answers a daily prompt on their own, and neither sees the other’s words until both have written.

Where it stands

The website and both editions are live. The premarital edition came out in September 2026. The app is in App Store review.
