A workshop aligned with Biblical principles.

"The Seven Principles workshop is based on The New York Times bestseller "The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work," by Dr. John Gottman and Nan Silver. It was developed from Dr. Gottman’s four decades of research with more than 3,000 couples. Over the years, Drs. John and Julie Gottman have continued to fine-tune their innovative method of disrupting negative behaviors that send relationships onto the rocks."

"It is the small daily moments that make up the heart and soul of your relationship."  The Seven Principles is a guide for anyone wanting their marriage to reach its highest potential. 

It helps in the friendship department to deepen your friendship foundation, managing conflict effectively, honoring one another’s life dreams and creating shared life meaning together.

• Will we have to share our personal problems and issues with the class?  No. The class does not include sharing problems or issues. Couples exercises are done privately.
• Must both partners attend or can I come alone? Since the class involves couples doing exercises together, both partners must participate. 
• My partner isn’t a reader. Can we still come to the class if he/she won’t read the book? Yes, still come to the class. While the book provides very valuable information, the class lectures will summarize the content of the book. Each person will need a Couples Guide however, to do the couples exercises efficiently. 
• Should we do the exercises in the book at home or save them for class? The class will involve doing some of the exercises from the book. The Leaders also role-play how to – and how not to do some of the exercises in order to help participants get the most out of each exercise.
