We have different classes and events available for different stages and phases of marriage and parenting. Please take a look at what's currently available and coming up as options for you and your family.
Have you ever wondered why some marriages last, and some don’t? In this 6 week marriage class we will help engaged couples and newlyweds (those married less than 5 years) discover God’s design for a marriage that is Built to Last. We will cover important topics like establishing a solid foundation, working through conflict and having good communication, biblical community, and what it means to create a marriage where you become one.
This is a 7-week introductory class into the Marriage Ministry classes. We focus on relationship building, understanding that you are not the only couple on the island, and meeting other couples who either are in your same place or have already been there and have moved through it.
Lost in Love is a fun 8 week course where together we will grow, learn, and laugh together as we see look to understand God’s blueprint for marriage. Whether you have been married for many years or are new to the journey, we invite you to come and learn new tools that will help your marriage reflect Christ. Each week couples will be challenged to implement a new strategy and watch their marriage grow as we seek the Lord for wisdom and guidance. Topics include: Date your spouse, Forgiveness, Having a mission, Learning your spouses “number,” and knowing God’s purpose for marriage are just a few of the topics we will discuss.
