• Testing (Discovering relational strength and growth areas)

• Scripture-based marriage preparation

• Pastoral marriage counseling

 

Marriage was the first institution ordained by God in the Garden of Eden, and next to the decision made for Christ, the decision of a life partner is the most important. So sacred is this relationship that God Himself uses it as a symbol of the relationship between Christ and His church. (Ephesians 5:22-33)

 

Premarital counseling is an excellent way to clear up misconceptions about marriage, set goals, and distinguish between God’s standards and those of the world.

​

Marriage counseling helps couples of all types recognize and resolve conflicts and improve their relationships. Through marriage counseling, you can make thoughtful decisions about rebuilding and strengthening your relationship. Counseling helps create time for couples to really come together and focus on their relationship.

With this in mind, as the Urban Shepherd I will be a mediator between the spouses and will help them establish healthy and effective communication while analyzing the behavioral patterns of the spouses.
