Before You Say I Do
(SOL 154)
Before you say “I Do”, ask yourself, what do I know about my future spouse. Too many people get married without asking the right questions upfront or asking them too late. In this course you will look at the Christ centered commitment needed in a successful marriage and how important it is to not be unequally yoked. Discover how to adjust to personality differences, clarify role expectations, handle finances, deal with in-laws and more. Establish a solid foundation for marriage before you say “I Do” and you will be glad that you did.
These classes are being held at
1309 Madison, Maywood, each Tuesday night at 7:30 pm at the Spiritual Growth & Development Center. Most classes require textbooks which can be purchased at the Solid Rock Christian Bookstore.
