Is Christian Pre Marriage
Counseling a Waste of Time?

Our Pre marriage Counseling Experience
by Wanda Collins

Christian pre marital counseling is the best thing you can do to prepare for marriage. But if you get the wrong counselor, it could be a waste of time.

In all honesty, it was for us. Our counseling sessions were not thorough.

Although we met with a minister on two separate occassions, the discussions were superficial at best. Boy, do we wish we could go back and change that!

Even if those two sessions focused only on the challenges that blended families face, that alone would have saved us years of frustration.

But in our counselor's opinion, we seemed equipped for the journey ahead; so much so, that he waived the four remaining sessions he normally required. Can you say, Big mistake!? We were not prepared and boy did we pay for it.

Christian pre marriage counseling should take more than two sessions because, ideally, it should cover a variety of topics in GREAT detail. Naturally, it should help you understand God's plan for marriage but it should also make you question why you want to get married in the first place.

To go one step further, a good counselor will challenge you to look within yourself and ask questions about your past, present, and future that perhaps you had never considered.
