First Few Years of Marriage Course

Marriage is a covenant relationship in which we proclaim privately and publicly that we will stand by each other in sickness and in health, in poverty and in wealth, and we will keep our relationship exclusive, so long as we shall live. However, working out the daily details can be tricky.

In this 6-video course, Jim and Doug share valuable advice for when couples come down off the emotional high of the “in love” experience, and they are not always inclined to “make each other happy.” Most of the skills required for a long-term, healthy marriage are learned in the first few years of marriage, and we encourage you to take your time as you work through the six sessions:

SESSION 1: One Marriage, Many Drifts, Thousands of Course Corrections
SESSION 2: The Importance of Fun and Laughter
SESSION 3: Celebrate Differences & Choose the Positive
SESSION 4: Fight Fear
SESSION 5: Have Great Sex
SESSION 6: Keep Your Promise
