If your
marriage is in crisis, especially with an unwilling spouse,
The International Center for Reconciling God's Way Ministry
(ICRGW) and will provide what you need NOW through
Marriage
911: a First Response Ministry.
Do you want to save your
marriage? See Get Connected to
find a church and/or Marriage 911 Ministry near you. If you
do not find a ministry near you, ask your church to consider
purchasing a First Aid Kit for
you, or a Marriage 911 Leader's Kit to start the ministry.
There are three focal
points to the Marriage 911
resources:
- To provide support and accountability for someone
whose marriage is in crisis-even with an unwilling
spouse.
- To equip pastors and
lay leaders with tools, resources, and training for these
couples in order to come alongside them in a way that will
help all those involved to avoid the two most common
mistakes: rescuing-and burning out, or avoidance-for lack of
knowing what to do.
- To help the Christian
community be prepared for a "first response" to someone
whose marriage is in crisis
The International
Center for Reconciling God's Way, Inc. (ICRGW) and the
National Institute of Marriage (NIM) partnered to
create Marriage 911 for couples or individuals in a crisis
marriage who need help NOW. For more information email us:

The Marriage 911 Workbook and Support Partner
Handbook provides support and accountability by giving
the person who is in a crisis marriage a 12-week workbook with 27 tools
to help them make wise decisions and provide hope--even with an
unwilling spouse.
How does it work?
The workbook includes a support partner handbook. The person
whose marriage is in crisis uses the workbook, and they give
the support partner handbook to a same-gender Christian
friend to help hold them accountable for doing the lessons in the
12-week workbook. This is a great way for discipleship and
mentoring to be made available for those struggling in their
marriage. The support partner handbook equips the mentor in
the area of avoiding burnout or rescuing, and if the support
partner is married the tools that are shared can be used to
strengthen an already healthy marriage.
The Marriage 911 Leader's Kit equips
pastors and lay leaders to begin a ministry using the
workbook and DVDs. It comes with everything necessary to put
the team in place and begin a 12-week class, plus a YES,
YOUR MARRIAGE CAN BE SAVED book. Once a Leader's Kit is
purchased, updates on new class resources are emailed
regularly or as needed. If you have ordered the kit in the
past and want these updates now email us at:
joeandmichelle@marriage911online.com
Once a church has purchased a leader's
kit they are also invited to join the Marriage 911 Leader's site
for ongoing support.
The Marriage 911 First Aid Kit for couples/individuals
helps anyone whose marriage is in crisis--even with an
unwilling spouse--to get help immediately. The kit includes
one workbook, one support partner handbook, one YES, YOUR
MARRIAGE CAN BE SAVED book, and a full DVD set (12 lessons
taught by Joe and Michelle). Each spouse needs their own
workbook.
