About the Author

After serving in the local church for 25 years, Barrett and Jenifer launched INFO for Families as a ministry designed to encourage people through speaking, personal coaching and resource development. They have a heart for newlyweds, marriages at mid-life, and parents who want to help their kids enter marriage without a ton of sexual and relational baggage. They have five kids, from a married 22-year-old to an active 7-year-old. With 24 years of marriage under their belts, three teenagers in their home, and their first grandchild born in 2013, they are an imperfect and ordinary family (like yours) who has truly experienced it all. Barrett did 15 years of youth ministry before serving for eight years as the Family Minister at Johnson Ferry Baptist Church in Atlanta, one of the largest churches in the South. He has degrees from Texas A&M University and Southwestern Seminary, but he and Jenifer have received their best education through the no-holds-barred nature of everyday family life.
