Why Are Thoroughly Equipped Marriage Mentors Needed?

MARRIAGIZERS™ is a ministry of HeartCare International.


homepage couple In spite of the masses of available resources, statistics reveal marriages continuing to deteriorate and divorce increasing at an alarming rate. A recent study released from the Barna Group shows that the likelihood of married adults getting divorced is identical among born-again Christians and those who are not. Couples acquire knowledge but have difficulty putting good relationship principles into practice. Too often the focus has been placed on methods of how "to do" marriage without first knowing how "to be" in the marital relationship. Without transformation of the heart, there is no lasting healing and growth.

We believe it takes couples mentoring couples to take their marriages to the next levelWe believe that it takes people to walk alongside people over time to see lives truly transformed – couples mentoring couples to take their marriages to the next level. However, the reality is that a majority of sincere couples willing to mentor have, themselves, not achieved marital intimacy. With a high degree of commitment and involvement, we lead mentor couples in an equipping experience, a blend of preparation in soul care, spiritual direction, and basic lay-counseling skills. Their own vitalized marriage in turn becomes a model and resource for their mentees.

We have committed to equipping Marriagizers – effective marriage mentors prepared to spiritually facilitate relational wholeness in couples of your church. Envision the result of having marriage mentors serving your church – increasingly healthy marriages that glorify God!
