July 28^th Ryan and Kaitlyn- Lenexa, KS “We now believe that we're beginning our marriage with a strong foundation”

July 29^th Thai and Huong-Denver, CO   “Having new perspective on how to communicate will be a powerful tool for us”
Him: I thought it was amazing getting so much of an experienced perspective on all these various topics. It's easy to fall into a singular-thought process but our instructor’s views and suggestions helped to take that step back and look at the larger picture again.
Her: Very informative! I enjoyed the course and getting our instructor’s point of view. All the exercises helped us talk things through again and this time in a new light.
Both: What this course has shown is that communication can and will benefit when including God in it. We're open and are able to talk about our pasts, mistakes, needs, wants, and everything in between. Having new perspective on how to communicate will be a powerful tool for us.
