Raymond and Leslie Funk founded a successful hospitality interior design firm that leveraged their over 50 years combined experience in the interior design, development, and project management industries….
But, in 2022, on their 12-year wedding anniversary, the Lord moved them to give it all up by birthing in them a dream and vision for a unique marriage ministry, Three Cord Marriage. A ministry by which they would pay forward the miraculous redemption God provided them in their own marriage, and equip and empower couples to experience true unity and live into their marriage’s divine purpose.
Having overcome infidelity, addiction, emotional abuse, and the like, Raymond and Leslie were compelled to share the truth about their marriage as a means of providing hope and healing to others.
Through creativity that only comes from the Father, they have developed a street-smart, spiritually led, non-profit marriage ministry that, in just a short period of time, has reached nearly 2,000 people, on 6 different continents and, created unique and impactful marriage events that challenge the mind, stir the Spirit, and leaves husbands and wives more in love with God and each other.
Understanding that both knowledge and wisdom are necessary, Raymond and Leslie both hold the title of Reverend, continue their education towards their pastoral credentials, are certified SYMBIS and Prepare Enrich Facilitators and are NRA certified pistol instructors and Range Safety Officers. Raymond is also a board-certified mental health coach with a specialty in marriage and family.
Together, they share the vision of Three Cord Marriage…To see a world transformed, by the influence of marriages lived out the way God intended.
