MBM Parramatta: Marriage Matters

Strong, healthy marriages leave a wonderful legacy, benefiting children, church communities and the wider society. 

The Building a Safe & Strong Marriage course is a biblically-based course that, combined with current marriage research, helps couples think through how to make their marriage better.

Over the day there'll be plenty of time to talk to your spouse to reflect after receiving input from Keith and Sarah Condie via video.
