God's Ancient Path to Romance and Marriage

An exciting course especially designed for young men and women and their parents!  This course uses the topic of courtship to teach and minister into family relationships.  If you have ever asked any of these questions, this course is for you!

  • Who will I marry?
  • Don’t I need to date to prepare for marriage?
  • What will my friends think if I decide for courtship?
  • What if parents and youth don’t agree on candidates for marriage?
  • What are the benefits of courtship?

What is it?   

A 10-week video-based study in courtship versus dating for parents and teens

This material is designed for a small group (4-5 families) of parents and young people to join together to learn and work through the topic of courtship.  The goal of the course is for parents and children to have a thorough understanding of the dangerous implications of dating (the world’s system) in order to come into agreement about partnering for the identification of God’s choice for the son/daughter’s spouse. 

Who should attend? 

Young men and women from 12 years of age into the early 20s, and their parents.

How Does the Course Work?

Each session includes written instructions which the leader uses to prepare and lead the course.  The families meet weekly for teaching, discussion and prayer.  Parents and youth will have study, communication and prayer assignments to do alone and together between sessions.

The small group should be facilitated by a person or married couple who can be sensitive to the emotions involved in this subject and to what God is doing in each life and family.  We strongly recommend the group be led by a person trained and experienced as a Family Foundations Facilitator.

The material works well in a home group environment or as a church class.
