Marriage Mentoring
Marriage is beautiful, but it can also be hard work. Looking for some help to keep your marriage healthy and strong?
Biblical Mentoring is available for you and your spouse! Mentor couples available at LAVC have been trained by Dare to be Different. (see website listed below)
Discover biblical principles to apply to your marriage in a loving, non-judgmental, and safe place to share. This ministry is not a teaching curriculum or a replacement for clinical or pastoral counsel, however, the provided online assessment will help you discover your relational health. Homework will be given to develop new habits and behaviors and you will learn tools that will apply long after your sessions are completed.
Fill out the request form below and we'll get the process started. Both spouses must fill out and submit a request form separately to begin the mentoring process.
-
Stronger couples become stronger parents and families, which eventually strengthens the overall church community.
-
We provide crisis marriage mentor training that is intended to lighten your load. This training equips your mentors to help with the demands of hurting marriages, so you can trust these mentor couples to help you in your crisis.
-
Our biblical step-by-step process will bring spiritual depth and meaning into each mentoring session as couples meet with mentors who share a vibrant faith together and utilize our scripture reference tools.

Our marriage mentoring is a terrific outreach and a way for mentors to be effective with their faith and draw people to the church with our loving, nonjudgmental approach.
-
Marriage mentoring is a great portal for evangelism. Linking mentors with people that are unchurched, with no personal or experiential background for church life, is an awesome opportunity to help them discover the Gospel.
-
Our marriage mentoring process is an effective discipleship tool that is used to invest in couples, to encourage and inspire them, and to offer hope and healing through the power of the Holy Spirit.
