The Benefits of Couple to Couple Coaching
You cannot replace the power of one couple ministering to another couple and inviting the power of God to move in their meeting.

There is power when a couple comes to another couple for help.
A healthy marriage requires dying to ourselves each day. Just read Ephesians chapter 5 to know what we are talking about.
We are to submit to one another in the fear of Christ (verse 21). The wife is to submit to her husband’s leadership (verse 22) and the husband is to love his wife just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her (verse 25).
We don’t know about you, but we just don’t have what it takes to do that on our own.
First, we need God’s help - through His power and Holy Spirit, who is called the Helper (John 15:26). Second, God, in His grace, has given us others in the body of Christ to come alongside us.
The verse from Proverbs 27:17 comes to mind, “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another” (NIV).
Think of the picture of iron sharpening iron. It requires close contact to get rid of the junk that isn't needed in order to make a sharp edge.
We are to sharpen each other so we can continue to run this race well. Having a husband and wife come alongside you in order to understand both sides of the marriage is an aspect you cannot replace.
What is stopping you from getting in close contact with someone to sharpen you and your marriage?
If you need that sharpening we are talking about, we are here for you. Schedule your free consultation with us.
