G.Y.M. (Growing YOUR Marriage) Small Group Studies
We believe that the greatest marriages are those where both husband and wife are putting time and energy into growing significantly in their personal relationship with Christ and in their marriage by putting Him at the center.
Every married couple also needs to invest in ongoing training and education to further understand and live the godly and abundant lives intended by God. Our vision is that marriages at Scottsdale Bible will be more resilient and thereby resistant to the whims of society, and that they will be Display Cases of Christ’s relationship with the Church in their circles of influence.
We have searched for the very best educational opportunities and tools to help marriages with the everyday issues of life that you’ve told us in our survey you would like to strengthen..
