Title: Loving Your Spouse Like Jesus Christ Loves His ... Bride
Ephesians 5 is often misunderstood and mishandled ... Dr. Bruce makes the meaning very clear in this presentation. Husbands and wives are to love each other as Jesus Christ loves His Bride -- the Church. This study examines the 6 characteristics of the love Jesus has for His Bride and draws applications for marriages. This is an excellent keynote or stand alone presentation.
Title: How Do You Say I Love You? 8 Love Languages ... Which one do you Speak?
Based on Judson Swihart's book by the same title, this 2 part seminar surveys 8 languages of love. It also offers lots of "knee to knee -- nose to nose" time for couples to discuss their love languages. Always a winner at our marriage seminars and weekends.
Title: The 4 Laws of Marriage
The Law of Leave: "for this reason a man will leave." Our marriages are to be the most important human relationships we have. The Law of Cleave: "shall cleave" ... the idea of cleaving implies an ongoing pursuit of our partners ... we never stop trying to win their affections. The Law of Weave: "the two became one flesh" ... one flesh is more than the physical union; we need to be building intimacy in every area of our relationships. The Law of Believe: "naked and unashamed." Just as the fall separated God and man it also separated man and wife. We will discuss the effects of sin on our marriages and present steps to purity. (This material has been adapted from Marriage on the Rock by Jimmy and Karen Evans.)
Title: We Go Around in Circles
Based on Eggerich's best seller Love and Respect this event overviews the three "cycles" of marriage: The Crazy Cycle, she needs love and he wants respect and we're not doing those well. The Energizing Cycle will unpack how she feels loved and he feels respected. And the Rewarding Cycle helps us understand the ultimate reason we work at loving and respecting our spouses. This event promotes a lot of good interaction between couples!

This event overviews 8 powerful deposits: love languages, encouragement, promises, oneness, spending time, integrity, touch, and spiritual connection that we can make into one another's banks. Couples will enjoy some great knee to knee discussions around these topics.
