Premarital Counseling

Orange County Christian Counseling

A happy marriage is something a lot of people dream about while growing up.Many believe that with the right partner they can succeed in achieving their dreams while raising a family they can be proud of.

But as many married people confess, happy married life is not always easy to achieve.This is because so many enter it sorely unprepared as they are ignorant of the work involved and the true roles of husband and wife, ill-equipped for the emotional and financial sacrifices, and even unaware of who their partner truly is.Thus, because they are not ready, many eventually join the growing number of unhappy couples who wish they never married in the first place.

Christian Premarital Counseling

Orange County Christian Counseling understands the importance of pre-marital counseling. Highly qualified counselors are ready to help engaged couples learn about the joys and the challenges of married life so that the soon-to-be spouses are truly prepared before they say “I do.”

Some of the topicsaddressed in pre-marital counseling include:

  • Communication and emotional barriers
  • Conflict resolution
  • Individual and family goals
  • Financial planning
  • Love languages
  • Parenting styles and difficulties
  • Relating with the in-laws
  • Roles of husband and wife

An important part of the pre-marital process is strengthening the partners’ relationship with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.God designed marriage to be a lifelong partnership where each spouse gives them self fully for the sake of the other.Such self-less sacrifice is not natural to us, which is why God’s grace and wisdom are necessary for any couple to succeed.

Start your marriage together with hearts and minds that are fully prepared for the journey ahead.To take advantage of the risk-free initial session or to learn more about what Orange County Christian Counseling can offer, contact us online or give us a call.
