The Communication in Marriage Course is an eight-week program designed for couples who are either born again, or not! The material is formatted so that it can be used for pre-Christians, and is designed to be nonthreatening. It includes an opportunity to lead people into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ in week six.

The material helps couples to understand each otherís thoughts, behaviors and needs. It covers the relational messages married couples often send when they donít understand their spouse's desires and thoughts.

This combination of teaching, discussion and practical assignments has proven to be an effective tool in building stronger marriages and in helping couples to realize that the blessing of a strong marriage can best be realized through a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.

The teaching by Craig Hill, founder of Family Foundations International, comes on 3 DVDs. There is a detailed Leader's Guide to assist in leading the course. Each week's teaching can either be played during weekly sessions or listened to by the leaders and then taught. Additionally, there participant notebooks with 8 weekly handouts, which walk the participants through the material.

“The Communication in Marriage Course was extremely beneficial to us personally. We've taken 5 groups through the course, and each time our own marriage is enhanced. We recommend this course for ANYONE who is married. Couples with problems as well as those who have a good marriage will benefit from this course.”

“This course provides couples with visual images, such as ‘love banks’ and ‘bear traps,’ that allow them to understand how problems have developed in their relationship.  Through new insights and understanding they are able to resolve these problems and improve communications.”
