SUMMARY:Closer Marriage Seminar (Term 1\, 2025)
DESCRIPTION:No matter where you and your spouse find yourselves right now—whether you’re thriving or just surviving—our Closer Marriage Seminar is designed to help you improve every aspect of your marriage. Over 8 weeks\, you’ll be equipped with practical tools to strengthen your relationship and grow ‘closer’ as a couple. \nWe know marriage can be both beautiful and challenging … beautiful if you do it right\, and very challenging if you do it wrong. We’ll be sharing insights from a male and female point of view—because let’s face it\, we often see things differently.  \nYou can expect straightforward talks about the highs and lows of marriage\, along with practical implementation homework after each session. We’ve designed this course to create meaningful moments and foster deeper connection between husband and wife.  \nHere’s our promise: if you and your spouse commit to the process and put in the work\, you WILL walk away from this seminar closer than ever before. \nDon’t settle for an average marriage! Join us for the Closer Marriage Seminar—your next step toward the marriage you’ve always hoped for.
