Premarital Counseling

The wedding is only the beginning.

Since bitten by the love bug, many boys and girls dream of their wedding day (and night).

Planning a wedding can be a fun and stressful season of life. There is the dress, tux, locations of the ceremony and the reception, followed by the honeymoon after that! You spend considerable time on the painstaking task of who you will invite and who will be left off the list.

You usually give some consideration to the parent’s wishes. Of course, the all-important task is to get the right playlist and the right DJ to play it (that is important as my “professional” DJ forgot our names!). Insanely expensive wedding cakes are on the list as well.

You dream of what it will be like to have your first couple’s dance with all the eyes in the room glued to you and your beloved in a storybook moment.

The story is yet to unfold completely.

But… as much as you want the storybook moment to last, it won’t.

The next day or maybe after you arrive home from the honeymoon, your mind reels. And reviewing the months of meticulous planning, you realize that the wedding day is now in the past, a memory that will only grow fuzzier as time passes. But now the realization…

You are married! Was there any meticulous planning done before the wedding regarding the rest of your life with your spouse?

Prepare for your life together.

No matter what, marriage is hard. Being married involves two separate people coming together united as one.

Marriage can go sideways in 100 different directions!

That does not mean don’t get married – it means to prepare for it.

And preparation should start at the beginning, not midway, because preparation helps offset challenges along the way.

Counseling prepares you for life together.

In my approach to pre-marital counseling, I use a great tool called SYMBIS to guide our discussion.

We go over all the key topics where many couples stumble because they didn’t know to talk about and prepare for them before marriage.

The most significant investment you can make is in pre-marriage counseling.

Let me help you discover more about yourselves and each other before taking a vow to be faithful in your life together.

Prepare for the rest of your lives together.

God uses marriage as the most effective cleansing and refining agent in our lives.

Honor your marriage before it begins, and let me take you through the Premarital Counseling journey together.
