The Marriage Course is for married couples that want a strong and lasting relationship. It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been married. Couples who have been married for close to 40 years, as well as newlyweds, have enjoyed and benefited from the course!
It doesn’t matter what condition your marriage is in. If you already have a strong marriage, this course can help you make it even better. If your marriage is in difficulty, the course will help provide you with very practical tools to help you work through issues. Some couples who are separated have used the course as a way of trying to get back together.
Although The Marriage Course is based on Christian principles of marriage, we welcome couples without a church background. The course is full of practical advice for all marriages and many couples who are not churchgoers have enjoyed and benefited from the course.
The Marriage Course is designed to build, strengthen, and even mend marriages. It helps married couples learn practical tools to build a strong and healthy marriage. Over eight evenings, couples have the chance to discuss important issues often ignored in the rush of daily life.
Topics covered include:
- Learning to communicate effectively
- Resolving conflict
- Healing past hurts
- Recognizing each other’s needs
- Making each other feel loved
- Handling relationships with parents and in-laws
- Realizing the importance of good sex
- Having fun together
All discussions are private between husband and wife; there is no group work involved at any stage of the course.
A Candlelit Dinner
Each evening begins with a delicious meal. Over a candlelit dinner, couples have an opportunity to spend time together with each other. Dinner is followed by a DVD presentation, interspersed with exercises and questions for each couple to discuss privately. During the discussion times, music is played in the background to prevent any conversations from being overheard. At no time during the course is there any group discussion or any requirement to disclose anything personal to anyone other than your spouse.
The next Marriage Course begins on Monday, September 12, 2011!

What Do Couples Say About The Marriage Course?
Alan & Meg
“The Marriage Course has made a huge difference to us. First of all, we are no longer walking on egg shells. We are closer now and we are freer. We can sit down and resolve any conflict without a fear of rejection. How we wish we had a marriage course to go to 38 years ago at the beginning of our marriage. It’s never too late to put things right.”
Jim & Lisa
I couldn’t recommend it enough. You arrive and they have dinner by candlelight ready for you. You work through real issues. You make real progress. It’s an important relationship and I think everyone should devote time to it.
It really helped us to learn the tools for communicating. You think you know how to communicate but sometimes you just know how to talk. We were able to break through that surface level of communication and really share our lives together and get back the intimacy and closeness that makes marriage so wonderful.

We were like two people living in the same house leading separate lives.
I can’t express the drastic turnaround this course has done for us.
