Dear Pastor/Leader:

  What is your church’s first response to someone whose marriage is in crisis—especially in the situation of an abandoned spouse? Many pastors and leaders agree that divorce-recovery-type classes are not the solution for someone who is still married. And, while private Christian counseling is an option, it is still costly and often takes weeks to get an appointment.

  Couples in crisis, or a person who is suddenly separated need a “First Response Team” who will provide...

  • Help from their church family now

  • Hope and support from others who can identify
  • Resources to keep them focused on God
  • Biblical tools to reconcile their troubled marriage

   We know from experience that pastors and leaders cannot tackle the high divorce rated in their churches alone. They will wear themselves out. “Your will surely wear out, both yourself and these people who are with you; you cannot do it alone” (Exodus 18:18).

   Marriage 911 (formally titled Reconciling God's Way) will equip you, your leaders, and couples or individuals in crisis or separated with help--now.

You will never get a second chance to have a "first response"
