This ministry helps to strengthen and stabilize marriages, enabling couples to go the distance and become life mates for a lifetime. A variety of service opportunities exist.
Marriage S.O.S.
Purpose: To provide a safe environment for couples to identify, discuss and apply biblical principles to their relationship.
Identify – Through Tommy Nelson’s DVD series couples will venture through the Old Testament book of “Song of Solomon” chapter by chapter. They will see first-hand how a couple went from attraction to dating, courtship to marriage, intimacy to romance, conflict to commitment.
Discussion – Each week after watching the video couples will discuss what was taught and ask questions related to the topic of the evening. There will be a few weeks where the couples will split up into break-out groups to discuss “guy” and “girl” issues and talk more intimately about the evening’s topic.
Application – Each week couples will close the night praying together as a couple over the evening’s topic. We will not be handing out specific homework assignments, but will strongly encourage couples in the discussion times to focus on the week’s topic throughout their week as a couple.
