It is to be a picture on earth of the love that a holy God has for us.\u00a0This means marriage was meant to bring joy and redemption.\u00a0 But, we are sinners who marry sinners, so for marriage to work well, it requires confession and forgiveness as each person becomes more like Jesus.\u00a0Our goal is to help couples strengthen their relationship by understanding God, and by improving their relationship with Him.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In marriage counseling sessions we help couples work towards honest communication, humility, forgiveness, and wise boundaries. We encourage reconciliation and healthy interaction, while acknowledging the deep scars and pain that can make marriages difficult.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Occasionally, we also offer\u00a0conferences and events in order to invest in marriages in the greater Dayton area.
