Married & Struggling

Rooted in the hope of the Gospel, we believe no marriage is beyond repair—and no couple has to walk through hardship alone. Whether you're facing quiet distance or loud conflict, this is a space for honest conversation, practical tools, and Christ-centered encouragement to help you move from struggling to growing, together.
Marriage Mentoring promotes God-honoring marriages by encouraging a loving and respectful husband/wife relationship. A trained mentor couple will offer you hope and practical support for growing closer to God and to one another. With God's help, you and your spouse can build a Christ-centered marriage and a strong family.

Marriage Mentoring

  • When you sign up for marriage mentoring, you will be asked to fill out a brief information form providing contact information and answering questions about your relationship and the type of help you are seeking.

    These areas of help include:

    - Establishing a Biblical foundation for your (relatively) new marriage.

    - Elevating your good husband/wife relationship to a great, God-honoring marriage. - Enduring a struggling situation with the hope of a longer and stronger marriage.

    After completing the requested information, you will be matched with a trained mentor couple. Your mentor couple will contact you and schedule a convenient time and place to meet.

  • When you meet with your mentor couple, they will first get to know you and determine your needs. Their goal is to listen and come alongside you with encouragement and helpful questions. Also, you will examine passages from the Bible focusing on relationships. You will discuss ways to apply Scripture to your vertical relationship with God and your horizontal relationship with your spouse. Assignments based on these passages will help you affirm your relationship with your spouse and provide a point of discussion with your mentor couple.

  • You will have many opportunities to ask questions and seek assistance in building your marriage as you grow closer to God and closer to each another.

    Your mentor couple recognizes the challenges of marriage, and want to help you navigate the application of grace to your spouse. With God’s help and the love expressed to you by your mentor couple, your marriage can honor the One who created the intimate relationship designed and desired for you and your spouse.
