Married Life Ministry

The purpose of this Married Life Ministries (MLM) is to support strong marriage relationships; to provide growth opportunities and encouragement for husband and wives as they encounter the everyday trials of their relationships, and to offer hope and counsel for troubled and hurting marriages. MLM also aids engaged couples in forming a firm biblical foundation upon which to build a Christ-centered marriage where both members can grow and thrive together.

Through seminars, bible studies and adult education classes we offer opportunities for couples to learn and grow in Christ as we offer counsel and support. Marriage is too often defamed and marginalized in our world so it is imperative that we take an uncompromised stand for that which has been established and sanctified by God.
