MarriedLife Live
Four times a year we design a totally new event for you and your spouse - to be with other couples, to experience incredible music, lots of laughs, tasty desserts, and a relevant message—all designed to encourage and empower your marriage.
At Each MarriedLife Live, we cover one of the these 6 essentials for a successful marriage:
- Trust God
- Cultivate Communication
- Nurture Romance
- Hurry Home
- Celebrate Differences
- Finish Together
The next Married Life Live is scheduled for Friday May 7, 2010
Cost? $20 per couple
Childcare? We want to make our environments as easy as possible for couples to attend. That is why Point of Grace provides you with reimbursement for your childcare expenses. You pay your babysitter, and our church will pay you back a flat rate per child. We hope childcare reimbursement makes your experience at MarriedLife Live not only less expensive, but more enjoyable. You can register for childcare expenses at http://www.pointofgrace.com/babysitter
MARRIAGES
Marriage can be one of life's most rewarding relationships, but it doesn’t happen by accident. At Point of Grace Church we provide a combination of on-going small groups and events to supply you with the tools you need to have a marriage that is worth the work.
Just as we affirm that marriage is between one man and one woman, we also affirm the fact that marriage is not always simple to navigate. There are seasons we struggle with communication, finances, sex, addictions and parenting.
Through all the seasons and challenges, we have designed a ministry to help struggling marriage heal and good marriage become great. Along the way you’ll meet some of the best friends of your life – don’t miss out!
PRE-MARRIED LIFE
The decision to marry is one of the most important choices we make in life. And preparation for marriage involves much more than detailing a beautiful wedding. Our desire is to help you establish a marriage that will endure and that you will enjoy for a lifetime. Our Premarital Small Groups and Mentors will walk beside you through this time and offer resources to prepare you for what lies ahead.
Our mentoring is available to members and regular attendees who are already engaged. If you desire to be married by one of our pastors, then you are required to receive marriage preparation through the Pre-Marital Ministry.
To receive more information please contact premarital@pointofgrace.com
MARRIED LIFE SUPPORT
Intimate Encounters is an 11-week small group environment that meets in homes throughout the week. It offers hope and direction for struggling marriages, and a jump-start for couples whose relationship is stalled. Designed for couples to experience together, Intimate Encounters will help you gain a better understanding of God's plan and purpose for your marriage.
This study will help you:
- Learn the top intimacy needs of you and your spouse
- Drain the emotional pain that is filling your emotional cup
- Heal past hurts through forgiveness
- Place your expectations on God instead of your spouse
- Identify and heal your childhood emotional wounds
We start Intimate Encounter small groups each fall and winter. If you feel that your marriage needs some help now, our Care Network staff can provide a personalized referral to a competent and caring Christian professional counselor for help. You can contact them at IE@pointofgrace.com
Couple Cost: $50 for resources
MARRIED GROUPS
Every marriage needs to be surrounded by people and principles that reflect God's unconditional love. In married small groups, couples are encouraged through friendship and equipped through discipleship. For additional questions please email smallgroups@pointofgrace.com
SINGLE
We believe that sustained spiritual growth happens when we share our lives with others who desire the same thing – that’s why we do small groups.
Groups for singles are made up of 8-12 men or women, in similar situations. They will meet for 12 weeks where they will not only explore the Bible, but also share the ups and downs of life together.
Regardless of where you are today, if you want to continue growing in your relationship with Jesus, a small group is the place for you.
For additional information, email singlesgroups@pointofgrace.com or call 515-987-9595 ext. 133
Explore Faith
Starting Point is a small group environment where you can explore faith and experience community. Starting Point is a safe place for adults who have questions about faith, Jesus, the Bible, and God. Starting Point is a 10-week conversational group, which consists of people who are investigating Christianity, have recently started a relationship with Jesus Christ, or are returning to church after being away for a while. For more information contact StartingPoint@pointofgrace.com
Meet People
Social events are a night of entertainment and social connection, as well as opportunities for you to invite your friends. Three times a year, during the months of September, December and April the singles small groups at Point of Grace come together for a large social event. For information about the next upcoming event contact singles@pointofgrace.com
