Study Purpose:  To create a study/discussion experience of biblical principles among husband and wife couples as described in the books: The Resolution for Men & The Resolution for Women.  Ultimately I am hoping these couples will produce some couples willing to mentor pre-marriage counseling couples.

Study Scope:  

Time – Wednesday nights 6:30 -8:00 pm during the regular Wednesday night study at church.

Materials – Men purchase read, discuss and practice the biblical principles in the book, The Resolution for Men

Women purchase read, discuss and practice the biblical principle in the book, The Resolution for Women
