Since God created us and designed marriage for us, doesn’t it make sense to do marriage God’s way? Although most of you would agree, the truth is that it is much easier said than done! Through the various resources offered by the WOL Marriage Ministries, our desire is to help support you in living out God’s best for your marriage and family, so that you can experience and enjoy a marriage that glorifies God.

Marriage Series Resource

Most of us have lived our lives taking marriage for granted. From the time we were children we knew about marriage. Marriage is so foundational to living that we never give it a second thought until we are faced with committing to it or getting out of it. Pastor Dan Carroll’s position paper, Marriage, Divorce & Remarriage, covers Biblical foundations for marriage, how it is God’s idea and the magnitude and importance that marriage holds in society.

Premarital Class

This eight-week class is intended for couples where neither have been previously married or have children outside their current relationship. Premarital is designed to equip couples who desire to marry with both Biblical foundations for marriage and practical principles to build their future marriage on. It is a required class for couples who wish to be married at Water of Life and/or by a Water of Life pastor.

Cost is $60 per couple for materials. If you desire to get married at Water of Life or by a Water of Life pastor, you will be required to complete a couples assessment (TJTA) that cost an additional $69.00 per couple.
