Strengthening Marriages, Families, and the Church — All & Only Jesus
The Jesus-Centered Marriage Movement flows from Romuald B. Simeone’s vision that ordinary men and women can become truly Jesus-Centered — and, through that transformation, become Jesus-Connectors in their marriages, families, and religious communities. It is not a program, but a movement: a way of living and dialoguing rooted in Christ Himself.
“Marriage and family — the first school of love.”
What Makes It Different
- Not just communication skills: Connect-Talk® reflects **Christ’s Connect-Talk® Positive Christian Dialog** as revealed in the Gospel of John and the Letters of John. It involves an inner and outter facing dialog, hence it shows one how to be his or her own best friend, connect to Jesus.
- It is a path of discipleship — replacing the seven capital sins with the seven virtues, and following all that Jesus taught and modeled.
- Not limited to couples: The same transformation strengthens priests, religious, and all who form the Body of Christ.
Why It Matters
Marriage and family are the first schools of love. When couples learn to dialog as Jesus dialogued, they become best friends — true come-through friends. They learn, as allies with each other, to offset each other’s hurts effectively. And with His version of Love for their children, extended family, parish, and community, they learn to pass Him on as Jesus-Connectors.
Religious families learn how to overcome personal loneliness and isolation, and how to safely open up and share their innermost needs and journey with Jesus — hence filling needs and strengthening each other to live as “Christ Clones,” modeling Him.
