Because of the kindness of his wife Peggy to forgive his conduct of the previous six years Bob Garrett repents, and pledges to try to return to being the husband and father he was before turning away from God. As a result of their Marriage Encounter Bob and Peggy begin presenting programs in which they can be helpful to other couples. Through one of those programs they are introduced to a lifestyle of simplicity which renews their interest in giving of themselves to the less fortunate, the common objective that originally attracted them to each other. When health problems arise because of over involvement the couple reduce their activities to the one service which eventually leads them to accomplish the goal they had sought throughout their wonderful relationship.
