"I purchased your Christian Premarital Counseling book about a year ago as I was looking for a substitute for the suggested material for seminary. Awesome stuff! Served well as a model method to pass the class and now I use it as part of my pastoral coaching ministry. Keep up the great work and as always prayerful blessings through Jesus." - Pastor Bob

Description of Christian Premarital Counseling: Preparing the Two to Be One
I recommend Christian premarital counseling for every couple. Just think of it. The great God who designed male and female also designed marriage. He knows how marriage best works! Why not see what He has to say?
The question is, "How does one conduct premarital counseling?" Many have not received any training in this area. I faced this same problem. As a pastor, I had to figure out how to conduct premarital counseling. The benefits were plainly evident. Session by session, couple by couple, I finally figured out a plan. I have since then enhanced it a bit and made it available to others. Everything one needs is here including handouts and forms.
Purpose: To aid pastors, elders and other church leaders involved in premarital counseling to challenge and prepare engaged couples to have good and godly marriages.
This premarital counseling manual is just the series to help you understand how to conduct Christian premarital counseling. There are not many premarital counseling materials around. This series aids pastors, elders and other church leaders involved in premarital counseling to challenge and prepare engaged couples to have good and godly marriages.
Handouts and work sheets (same as forms) are included and even an introductory questionnaire for the couple. We have recently updated the counseling book and made the handouts and forms editable. Feel free to edit and reshape them for your own counseling purposes. As an extra, an epub version is included!
Here is how I do it in 6 sessions. Step by step instructions, explanations, handouts and forms all included. A recent user told me that it was unbelievably usable for his ministry.
