Dynamic Marriage Training
Every church is only as strong as its marriages. But the sad truth is that marriages, including Christian marriages, are breaking down and divorce is reaching epidemic proportions. How can your church address this critical issue? By starting or enhancing a marriage ministry in your church.
You and your spouse can become facilitators of our Dynamic Marriage-enrichment program, a program that also reaches the lost. Family Dynamics trains and certifies godly couples to bless the lives of married couples by leading this powerful ministry.
Our marriage-enrichment program strengthens marriages before they run into relationship trouble and can save those whose marriages are already troubled. The system you will learn is designed to give couples the tools to prevent divorce or separation while enhancing the love, intimacy, and passion they have with each other.
We thoroughly equip you through an intensive three-day professional training to be facilitators of our marriage ministry. You'll learn our dynamic method for leading couples to do the things they should do in a good marriage and break the bad habits that contribute to bad marriage relationships. We teach you how to provide couples with information but, most importantly, transformation.
