The 4 Seasons of Marriage Couple's Study
Sep

The 4 Seasons of Marriage Couple's Study

  • First Baptist Church of Denham Springs (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Which season of marriage are you in?

Spring, summer, winter, fall. Marriages are perpetually in a state of transition, continually moving from one season to another―perhaps not annually, as in nature, but just as certainly and consistently.

The purpose of this study is to describe these recurring seasons of marriage, help you and your spouse identify which season your marriage is in, and show you how to enhance your marriage in all four seasons.

This marriage study begins on September 6 and lasts 6 weeks.
