Grace Marriage
Invest in your marriage.
Grace Marriage is an exciting ministry designed to enrich, protect, and grow your marriage. Using Biblical, grace-based materials you will have time to talk with your spouse and explore ways to enrich your relationship. Our marriage ministry is an intentional commitment to grow in your relationship with each other and the Lord.
MARRIAGE COACHING
Four times a year husbands and wives meet with other couples in various stages of life to explore different aspects of marriage. The sessions are called marriage coaching. Marriage coaching is an intentional and proactive approach to re-focus on positives in your relationship. Marriage coaching is not a lecture. It is not marriage counseling or group therapy. It is not a seminar or conference. It is not a place where you will be forced to share your deepest secrets. Quite simply, it is a Biblically based marriage maintenance model that can revolutionize your relationship.
God Created Marriage for More... Grace. Gratitude. Connection.
God created marriage for more grace, more gratitude, and more connection.

Grace Marriage sessions last around 4 hours. That is a long time for children to be at the church building, even if they have activities. We believe most children would be happier in their own home or with family/friends they know. We also want to give couples freedom to focus on each other without feeling the need to check on the kids if they are just down the hallway. For these reasons childcare will not be offered
We have the dates listed for the year, so you’re able to arrange childcare in advance. Think of this as a date day and an opportunity to spend time together!
- What does a normal date night cost if you go out to eat and see a movie, or if you go to a ballgame or concert? $75? $100? More?
- The cost for four days of marriage coaching, including all materials, snacks, and lunch is just $200 per couple for the year. That is less than $1 a day.
- The $200 is due at the time you register.
- We encourage you to consider your participation fee as an investment in your marriage.
