Our Founders

Founder
Jennie Salary
As a devoted wife and mother, I've experienced both the beauty and challenges of marriage. My passion for God's people-and for healthy marriages between Man and Wife-compels me to share my story.
Through transparency and grace, I hope to help others avoid the mistakes I've made a long the way.
Join us as we explore the power of love, unity, and Faith in marriage. Together, we can strengthen families and build Christ-Centered communities rooted in the Love of Jesus.

Founder
Alton Salary
Hello Everyone!
I'm here to help others in their marriage journey by sharing some of the lessons I've learned-many of them the hard way. I'm far from perfect and still make mistakes, but I've learned how to fight the right way and how to repair the damage when I fall short.
Putting God first has been the game-changer. He makes it so much easier to navigate the ups and downs and to grow stronger together. If I can help even one couple avoid some of the pitfalls I've faced, then it's worth it. We're all in this together!

Licensed Therapist
Emily Whitacre
Co-Founder Unboxed Grace Counseling Co.
I'm Emily! For over a decade, I've been dedicated to making a difference in the field of community mental health. My journey has been rich with diverse roles, ranging from case worker and behavioral clinician to skills coach and operations director. Now, I get to add the role of licensed counselor and relationship coach as well! As the CEO of Unboxed Grace Coaching, and co-founder of Unboxed Grace Counseling, my heart's desire is to revitalize wellness in our community and spark revival in relationships. I'm happily married to Kevin, my best friend and partner for 13 years, and we have three beautiful children and a feisty Frenchie. When I'm not helping clients or momming, I love to spend time by the water—lake or ocean, I'm not picky, just give me the sand and sun and I'm a happy girl!

Prayer/Accountability Partners
Stefan & Chelsea Phillips
Stefan and Chelsea have been married for several years and are the proud parents of three beautiful children—two boys and a girl. Stefan serves as one of the lead worship leaders at City Church, faithfully using his gifts to lead others into the presence of God.
They have had the privilege of walking alongside Alton and Jennie in this ministry, joining together in leading worship, speaking, and loving and praying with the Salary's. We support them in times of need and help organize and prepare for each workshop.
Stefan and Chelsea lead with authenticity, passion, and purpose. Their deep love for the Lord and their heart to draw others into a closer relationship with God is evident in all they do. Their commitment to walking alongside couples—helping them grow closer to one another and to the Lord—is both powerful to witness and a blessing to experience.

Prayer/Facilitators & Accountability Partners
Ben & Marci Gilliom
College sweethearts, Ben and Marci Gilliom, are grateful for 22 years of marriage and two children, one of whom is getting married this summer. Following Jesus together has been their greatest joy and challenge. In 2020, they sensed the Lord telling them to build a barn where people could encounter Him and experience community. Little did they know that God was inviting them on one of their most meaningful adventures yet. While stewarding the ‘Jesus Barn’, they’ve witnessed countless miracles that have deepened their faith and enriched their community. One thing they’ve witnessed is the Holy Spirit’s ability to heal and transform marriages through the power of prayer and confessional community. This is one of the reasons they feel privileged to host and intercede for The Original Fight Club Ministry.
