The Marriage Course is for any couple, whether you’ve been together for one or sixty-one years, and whether you feel you have a strong relationship or are struggling.

While The Marriage Course is based on Christian principles, it is designed for couples with or without a Christian faith.

Whatever your situation, the practical tools you learn will help improve and strengthen your relationship.

What is The Marriage Course was developed by Nicky and Sila Lee, coauthors of The Marriage Book and The Parenting Book. They have been married for over thirty years, have four children, and live in London. They started The Marriage Course in 1996, and it continues to spread with thousands of courses now running around the world.

Over seven sessions you will discover practical tools to help you: • understand each other’s needs • communicate more effectively • grow closer through resolving conflict • heal the ways you’ve hurt each other • recognize how your upbringing affects your relationship • improve relationships with parents and in-laws • develop greater sexual intimacy • discover each other’s love languages and much more!
