THE GOTTMAN SEVEN PRINCIPLES PROGRAM

Presented primarily from the internationally acclaimed research of Dr. John Gottman and filtered through God's Word for marriage, this workshop offers something for a man and woman in any phase of marriage, whether contemplating engagement or married 50 years! If a couple's relationship is strong, this workshop will provide them with tools and insights to make their relationship even better. If a couple has a distressed relationship, this workshop can provide a road map for repair! The tools/strategies are successful for people of any or no faith, but couples with a biblical worldview will gain added insight on how to live out God's Word for marriage in specific, practical and very REAL ways!

A bonus is that many of the principles and strategies work within other relationships, like family members or co-workers. Gain some parenting tips as well! If you are wanting to learn how to communicate better and manage conflicting opinions better with other people, this is the workshop for you!

Dress casually and comfortably! Snacks and coffee will be provided throughout the weekend but lunches will be on your own. You can choose a local restaurant or bring your lunch and eat in. Many people like to bring their own water bottles as well. This is a WORKshop but it has light, humorous moments as well. Come ready to learn, work and have fun!

The weekend consists of teaching and skill practice. The "what", "how" and "why" of each skill/principle is taught in the large group and then there will be a break out session for you and your spouse/partner to work (privately) on it. Although questions are welcome, you will not be required or expected to share personal/private info in the group. You will have opportunity to ask questions anonymously through text, and Jeff and Kathy will also be available to answer questions and provide direction during break out sessions.

There will be an optional session for anyone who is raising, helping to raise, or working with kids. This session will cover a few ways to help children to grow in security, confidence and resilience and to have a more connected relationship with you.
