Pre-Marital & Marriage Counseling


Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain. — Psalms 127:1
It is ironic that an entire industry worth billions of dollars is built around weddings, but for most people very little thought or preparation goes into the actual relationship and the foundation needed to keep a marriage healthy and strong. Cross-Purpose Ministries provides counseling before and after the wedding day to help strengthen your relationship in a way that honors God and lasts for a lifetime.

Pre-Marital Counseling

Our pre-marital counseling services equip couples with the knowledge and tools needed to navigate the challenges inherent in two unique individuals becoming one. Through the use of assessment inventories, we evaluate and provide feedback designed to help couples understand each other and learn helpful strategies of communication, goal-setting and cooperation.
Cross-Purpose Ministries recommends counseling for engaged couples or people in serious dating relationships. The course ideally should be initiated six months before the wedding date, and consists of 8 two-hour sessions using your choice of one of the following assessment inventories:

  • Prepare/Enrich
  • SYMBIS
  • FOCCUS

Marriage Counseling

God created marriage as a mirror of our own relationship with Him. Therefore, marriage counseling with Cross-Purpose Ministries draws from the Bible as a primary source, and focuses on relationship as a parallel to the intimacy God desires between us and Himself.

We offer counseling for couples in all different stages of marriage:

  • Building stronger marriages
  • Marriages in crisis
  • Divorce counseling
  • Step-parent and extended family issues

Each counseling program is unique and geared towards the gravity of the issues in the marriage. Success rates are high with individuals willing to participate in making personal changes.

Call or email us today to help us strengthen your marital relationship in a way that honors God and lasts a lifetime.
