The Evident Life Married Life Ministry exists to glorify Christ by preparing, equipping, and strengthening marriages through:
- Premarital Counseling
- Small Groups
- Church-wide Events
- Bible based Resources
- Prayer for Marriages
So that marriage is honored and marriages thrive, enabling couples to walk in the sacrificial love of Christ and to display the gospel in compelling ways.
“Let marriage be held in honor among all.” – Hebrews 13:4a
Premarital Ministry
Are you ready for marriage? If wedding bells are in your future, talk to us about premarital counseling. We use primarily 9 Must-Have Conversations for a Doubt-Free Wedding Day by Gary Thomas to open up important conversations and help you build a solid foundation for your future together. Sometimes we have used the SYMBIS (Saving Your Marriage Before it Starts) assessment or the book .
Small Groups
Strengthen your relationship and connect with other couples by participating in a small group focusing especially on marriage issues. Groups are held periodically as part of our marriage and family track.
Church-Wide Events
Evident Life also invests in marriages through date nights and marriage seminars. Keep an eye out for future events.
Bible-Based Resources
Need some fresh inspiration or encouragement for your marriage? We have some books and audio resources that are available to borrow.
Some recommended resources:
- The Meaning of Marriage by Timothy and Kathy Keller
- The Love Dare by Stephen and Alex Kendrick
- The Power of a Praying Wife/Praying Husband by Stormie OMartian

Prayer
Prayer is at the heart of all we do at Evident Life and we believe that it has incredible power to change our marriages and breathe life into our homes. Our marriage ministers count it a privilege to pray regularly for the marriages of Evident Life, and if there is a specific way that we can be agreeing with you in prayer for your marriage, please reach out to Phil and Angie at marriage@evidentlife.org
