Building a Marriage That Lasts: Christ-Centered Premarital Counseling in St. Louis

Marriage is a lifelong, God-ordained commitment that should not be taken lightly. It is a beautiful covenant, but also a journey that requires intentional preparation and a strong foundation. Couples who enter marriage without preparation often find themselves facing struggles, unhappiness, or even divorce.

True Vine Christian Services believes in equipping you with the tools to not only survive the challenges of marriage but to thrive in a deep, meaningful, and joyful union. Our pre-marital counselors in St. Louis provide wisdom and direction for a committed, respectful, and fulfilling life together. We help you learn the important skills to build a truly strong, happy, and God-honoring marriage.

What We Cover in Our Counseling Sessions

Our pre-marital counseling is designed to be a safe space where you can explore key topics and grow together. We specialize in all of the most important skills in marriage, preparing you to tackle the common hurdles couples face with confidence and grace. Our sessions are tailored to your unique relationship, but often cover:

• Communication Styles & Conflict Resolution: We help you understand your partner’s communication style and teach you biblical principles for healthy, productive conversations. You will learn to navigate disagreements constructively, listen with empathy, and resolve conflict peacefully.
  

• Specific Needs and Expectations: Every person enters a marriage with a set of hopes, dreams, and expectations. We guide you through open and honest discussions about everything from household duties and finances to intimacy and personal boundaries, ensuring you're both on the same page.
  

• Financial Stewardship: Money is one of the most common sources of marital stress. Our counseling helps you develop a shared approach to managing your finances, setting budgets, and aligning your goals for a future of financial peace.
  

• Roles, Responsibilities, and Family: We discuss your unique roles within the marriage and your future family. This includes conversations about parenting, your careers, and how to navigate relationships with in-laws and extended family in a way that honors both of your families while prioritizing your new marital unit.
  

• Spiritual Intimacy: We help you explore your individual and shared spiritual walks. Our goal is to strengthen your bond not only with each other, but also with God, ensuring that He remains at the center of your marriage.
