Family is one of the primary spheres in which we embody the gospel, but family can be hard. Caring for aging parents is not easy. Faithful singleness is a challenge. Maintaining healthy, biblical marriages demands significant investment. Parenting grows more challenging as culture evolves rapidly. The Edmond Church of Christ aims to equip people for faithfulness in all family stages.
Preventative Ministry
The Family Life Ministry is proactive and preventative in nature. While therapeutic measures like counseling are necessary, proactive ministries are used to strengthen families before crises occur. Families are equipped with the proper tools – both biblical and practical – to better deal with the challenges of family life.
Therapeutic Ministry
No one plans for crisis to occur. No one wants their future plans to crumble. But when life’s unforeseen challenges occur, the Family Life Ministry offers numerous therapeutic ministries. When times are difficult, we want to be your advocate.
Marriage Enrichment
Our goal is not just that your marriage stays together. Our goal is that your marriage thrives! Marriage enrichment programs like Growing Love, Marriage Mentors, Prepare/Enrich, marriage classes, and the annual Marriage Encounter are offered to keep your marriage healthy and thriving.
