Marriage Coaching
When couples need help with…
God’s Design for Marriage • Valuing Your Story • Meshing Two Temperaments • Communication Conundrum • Fair Fights
His Family, Her Family, Our Family • Expectations: Whose job is that? • Financial Margin • Amazing Sex
Premarital Coaching is more than prepping a great wedding, but rather preparing for a thriving marriage where we understand how to do life together as one. I love asking the questions that reveal hidden assumptions and expectations and then giving couples tools for a healthy marriage.
Marriage Coaching is like remodeling a house; you never know what’s behind those walls until you start pulling it apart. Once the problems are revealed you want a coach who has experience in building healthy marriages. It’s been my joy to walk with couples in their twenties to couples in their sixties; some needing a relationship tune-up and others trying to restore a broken marriage.

“My husband and I are both so thankful we did our premarital coaching with Pastor Scott leading up to our wedding day. He provided a friendly, non-judgemental, safe space for my future husband and I to discuss a wide variety of important, but sometimes uncomfortable topics including personality types, personal priorities and expectations, family, and finances. All of our sessions made us reflect on our own hearts and openly discuss things that we really did need to communicate with each other before diving into a lifetime of marriage together.”

“Premarital coaching with Pastor Scott was so impactful for us as a couple. Pastor Scott gave us some amazing tools that we still use today. Things like how to fight fair (because arguments happen), how to respect each other financially, how to understand our different temperaments and to communicate in a better way with one another, and to remember that we are marrying each other, not a plan of marriage that we may have in our minds. Coaching with Pastor Scott truly helped prepare us for the joys and responsibilities of building a healthy marriage.”

“From the first session to the last, it was so apparent how invested Scott was in our relationship and in helping us succeed in our marriage. Not only did we feel seen and understood, we felt challenged. Scott's passion for connecting with us and guiding us towards God’s design for marriage created an environment that fostered deeper conversations both during sessions and outside of them. Each activity, conversation, and exercise we did during marriage counseling led to deeper conversations and more compassion for one another. Ultimately, we feel we grew to understand God's design for marriage and each of our roles within that design, in a safe space that has led to a strong foundation for starting our marriage.”

“After getting engaged we knew we wanted to set our marriage up for success by taking a premarital course. Scott was able to help us dive deeper into areas of tension and reminded us of God's design for marriage. While no relationship is perfect, we feel better equipped to handle issues in the future and look forward to using the tools Scott provided to us.”
