Family Life: Marriage Mentoring

(This post was written by Chuck Carringer, Pastor of Family Ministries)

Consider the following questions about your marriage:

Are you new to marriage?

Are you discovering that blending your life with your spouse is not as easy as you imagined?

Would you like to be able to ask someone how to handle “hot topics” with your spouse?

Do you feel like you keep having the same disagreement over and over?

Do you feel like your husband or wife just doesn’t “get” you?

Would you like to know more about being a Godly husband or wife?

If you answered yes to any of these questions consider marriage mentoring. We (Faith Promise Church) recently completed training our first group of marriage mentors. These couples are committed to helping other couples experience the type of marriage God designed. These mentors have faced their own hurdles and want to help other couples work through the challenges that our day-to-day married life brings.

How do you get plugged in? Go to faithpromsie.org, under “care ministries” complete the initial questionnaire and you will be invited to complete a comprehensive couple’s inventory. You will learn about your relationships strength and growth areas – then you and your mentors will spend a year together meeting periodically, learning how to maximize your relationship. If could be the best investment in your marriage you have ever made. Don’t settle for less than God’s best for your marriage.

Could your marriage benefit from marriage mentoring?
