Everyone looks forward to living “happily ever after” once they say “I Do.” However, the truth is: a strong, healthy and lasting marriage doesn’t happen by accident. In this course, you will discover four vows that will fail-proof your marriage. The vow of Priority, the vow of Pursuit, the vow of Partnership, and the vow of Purity. You’ll find a richer, deeper, more authentic relationship and a more rewarding, more passionate love life than you could have ever imagined. When Jesus enters our lives, it begins a lifelong journey of transformation. As followers of Christ, we are called to grow and to become the people God has called us to be. In this course, you will learn how life-change can happen in you and how to identify the barriers that have held you back from receiving God’s best. You will be encouraged to break out of destructive patterns and step into an upward progression of Mark & Denise McKinnon freedom in Christ.
