About This Course

Marriage is God's idea and not something invented by society. While popular culture often defines marriage on its own terms, Christians are called to discover God's design and purpose from the Bible. This course is an in-depth study of God's Word to uncover the key ingredients that make for a meaningful and fruitful marriage.

"Understanding the role of the husband and wife, learning to communicate, resolving conflicts, and managing the home are just some of the focus areas of learning and enrichment in this course."

Whether you are preparing for marriage, seeking to enrich a marriage in progress, or wanting a firm biblical grounding, this course offers equipping to enrich, renew, and edify yourself. We cover topics ranging from communication and conflict resolution to sexuality and parenting.
