Why do you need counseling before you say I do?

Do you need Pre-Marital Guidance? Everything you need to know to thrive, not just survive before you say “I Do”.

My hubby and I are passionate about marriage, and we love to encourage others in ways they can have a truly joyful marriage.

Our society is plagued with a 50% divorce rate wether you are a Christ follower or not. We know nobody walks down the aisle hoping to get divorced. And yet it is happening at alarming rates.

It was a common thing to get Pre-Marital Counseling in previous generations, but is a dying tradition. Some people don’t understand why you need counseling before you are married. Some aren’t plugged into a good church or just simply aren’t comfortable talking with their pastor about it.

We truly want marriage to drop the bad wrap and regain it’s good reputation, just the way God designed.

Years ago we were asked to do pre-marital counseling for my sister and her hubby. When we started researching which book we wanted to walk through we didn’t find one that contained everything we felt was necessary. That’s when we decided to sit down and write our own.

We poured through scripture and talked extensively about what needed to be included. Talking about things we walked through and saw others walking through. Noting what we loved about our own pre-marital counseling experience. We printed each section and bound it, then set up a schedule to meet with my sister and her at the time hubby to be.

So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate.”

Matthew 19:6

We found we came alive while teaching these truths, we couldn’t wait to share the next section and just loved talking about marriage. After we finished God continued to bring couples who needed a Biblical pre-marital counseling alternative to meeting with their pastor. Each time we just grew even more passionate about equipping couples with tools before they said “I Do”.

Why an online course?

We had always wanted to be able to share these cornerstones of marriage with more couples. As we started seeing the availability to create an online course we felt led to share the wisdom we had via this platform!

Doing the course online allows you to fit the course into your busy wedding planning schedule, at your pace from the comfort of your home. You will have lifetime access to the course in case you need a refresher once you have walked down the aisle.
