MARRIAGE MINISTRY

AT THE MEETING HOUSE

What is Marriage Ministry?

At The Meeting House, we value healthy, thriving, God-honoring marriages that, at their best, exemplify Christ’s love for the church. We strive to offer programming and resources to equip couples on their journey towards Christlikeness through loving God and loving each other well.

 

If you have questions about the Marriage Ministry at TMH, how to get connected, or are having a crisis in your marriage, email office@tmh.church and someone will connect you with one of our ministry leaders.

Facets of the Marriage Ministry

For Pre-Marital Couples

For premarital couples we offer a Marriage Preparation class where couples take the Prepare/Enrich assessment and attend a group class.The Prepare/Enrich assessment is a widely known and used tool with a solid research foundation and applicability. It has over 1200 published articles supporting its reliability and validity. The course also includes materials from the Gottman Institute which produces leading research in the field of marriage therapy.

 

At the conclusion of the class we highly encourage couples to be matched with a marriage mentor couple that will walk with them in an intentional relationship throughout the first year of their marriage.

The Marriage Course

Opportunities for marriage enrichment are provided throughout the year in the form of The Marriage Course which is offered through the Alpha International organization. The marriage course is a 7 part video series that provides time for learning and discussions between spouses on the topics of the art of communication, resolving conflict, the power of forgiveness, the impact of family, good sex, and love in action.

 

The Marriage Course is held each spring, for more information, contact office@tmh.church.

Marriage Mentors

Marriage mentors are couples who have several years of marriage experience and have walked through a process of intentional reflection, assessment and discussion regarding their own marriage and have a heart to support others in their marriage relationship. The goal is for a mentor couple to intentionally invest in and develop a relationship with a mentee couple over the course of at least one year.

 

Marriage mentors are offered “mentor meet-ups” which are group gatherings in an effort to provide support, community and accountability among mentor couples.

 

Couples who are interested in meeting with a mentor couple can should complete the form below.
