5 Marriage Goals Presentation

How can we learn about these goals?

5 Marriage Goals is provided verbally in a 90 minute presentation to a couple or a small group. You will not be asked or expected to share your own relationship with others. This is not a marriage clinic, therapy or a substitute for counselling.

What does it cost?

A small group presentation costs $50 per couple. A private presentation costs $100 per couple.

The presentation includes a free online ‘5 Love Languages’ Premium Assessment Report identifying your individual preferences in giving and receiving love (value $39 per person).

What style of presentation can we expect?

Our presentations are provided in a relaxed conversational manner. You will not be asked to share with others about your relationship. There will be opportunity for questions. You will get examples of when and how to use the goals to promote good communication, respect for each other and stay in love with each other through your life’s journey.

Where did these 5 goals come from?

The first four goals were developed as part of a marriage enrichment programme presented primarily as a live in weekend by an organization called World Wide Marriage Encounter. Whilst the Marriage Encounter weekend provided an opportunity for intense closeness and undistracted communication, these four goals for marriage were integrated into the weekend course.

The Marriage Encounter Weekend has been enjoyed by over 3.5 million couples in 94 countries and has been translated into well over 100 languages. The fifth goal was discovered over thirty years of marriage counselling by Dr Gary Chapman, whose book ‘5 Love Languages’ has sold over 20 million copies.
