5 Free Online Gospel-Centered Marriage Seminars

Counselor Brad Hambrick of The Summit Church in Durham, North Carolina (where J.D. Greear pastors) has provided free videos of five Christian marriage seminars titled “Creating a Gospel-Centered Marriage.” Each seminar works through important topics relating to marriage in five or six sessions with each session ranging from a half an hour to about fifty minutes.

My wife and I are working our way through a couple of these seminars and recommend them for couples to watch together to grow in the Lord and strengthen their relationship.

Creating a Gospel-Centered Marriage Seminars

1. Foundations
2. Communication
3. Finances
4. Decision-Making
5. Intimacy

Here are a few reasons to consider these videos:

1. We all need to make the foundation of our marriages the gospel and God’s purposes for us.
2. It is easier to watch a video than read a book together. (At least for my wife and I.)
3. Watching the relatively short sessions will be a better investment in your marriage than watching Netflix.
4. Some of the sessions/seminars have evaluations, worksheets, and additional resources to work through. (You can contact church staff to request a copy of the workbooks.)
5. You and your spouse can start a marriage journal and take notes through the sessions. That’s what my wife and I are doing, with plans to review our notes and pray through them.
6. You can probably stand to grow in your understanding of how the gospel specifically relates to communication in marriage, handling finances, decision-making, and intimacy.
7. If you have kids, an investment in your marriage will pay incalculable long-term dividends for them.
8. A strong, Christ-centered marriage is powerful testimony in a world of self-centered and sinful people.
9. THEY ARE FREE.

You may also want to consider some of Brad Hambrick’s helpful books and booklets. (S/O to Sammy Nieves for the heads up on these!)
