Before the Wedding
As we all know, you have to take a test if you want to get a license to drive, practice law or medicine, or fly a plane.  There is also a way provided to prepare for this test.  A marriage license stands out as the only license that not only has no test, but no way to prepare to get it.
  
There is a growing realization that today, more people get hurt in bad marriages than by cars, airplanes, doctors, and lawyers combined.  This is why we offer a short and usable prep course for couples who are getting married. The course is run at least once a year (or whenever the spaces fill up).
 
Topics include:

 Expectations and Commitment
Communication Skills
Finances
Male and Female
Anger and Conflict Resolution
Forgiveness and Spiritual Life
Sex
How to Have a Good Fight
