The MARRIAGE & FAMILY COUNSELING Course is three courses in one: Unity in Marriage, Parenting by Faith, and Singleness, Dating & Pre-martial. It weds sound biblical theology with years of practical counseling experience as it equips counselors and families with the same insights and assignments that have been used at the center to restore relationships and transform lives. There are 28 sessions in all but you can register for any of the three courses separately.
Genesis 2:24 - "For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become one flesh."
The "Unity in Marriage" Course is in two sections, 1) "God and Me in Marriage", and 2) "Two Becoming One". The "God and Me" section will teach you how to join God as he is working to change you in your marriage. The "Two Becoming One" section will teach you how to join God as he is working to promote unity in your marriage. In all 16 sessions you will be equipped with the same key insights that have been used by God at the Center to restore the love and teamwork of many marriages. The soil of your marriage will be saturated with biblical insights and practical tools that can revitalize your own heart and marriage and, at the same time, equip you to intensively disciple those in need of marital help. Couple’s who attend often give testimony like the following, “We could not believe how deeply the Holy Spirit spoke to our hearts about changes we needed to make … we were forever impacted.”
