A ministry designed to help couples intentionally invest in their marriage, grow closer together, and live out God’s design for marriage

Marriage is God’s idea, a reflection of His love and plan for us. But let’s be real: life gets busy, and it’s easy to drift apart. Work stress, kids, and unspoken frustrations can quietly create distance. The stressors of life can also steal the joy from our marriage. The good news? You can shift the drift and continue to prevent it from happening. Grace Marriage at First Baptist Church De Soto is a Christ-centered ministry designed to help couples reconnect, communicate better, and strengthen your relationship through intentional investment. No matter your age or how many years you’ve been married, there’s always room to grow in deeper levels of connection. You’ll grow in your marriage, talk together and walk alongside other couples doing the same thing. 

What GraceMarriage is:

It’s a discipleship pathway for marriages—a long-term, proactive approach to strengthening your relationship. Through Grace Marriage, you’ll receive practical, engaging video lessons, beautiful journal-style workbooks with a full year of content, and access to bonus resources on the Grace Marriage website. Each session will help you focus on key areas of your relationship and grow in oneness and connection.

What GraceMarriage is not:

It’s not a counseling session. It’s not a place where you’ll be put on the spot or asked to share your deepest, darkest secrets in front of everyone. Instead, it’s a safe, engaging environment where you’ll have the opportunity to reflect, learn, and connect. Of course, you’ll build relationships along the way, but the primary objective is to grow in your marriage.

Your Investment:

We’re inviting you to invest $189 in your marriage this year. When you break it down, that’s about the cost of just a few date nights out. This is the base cost to cover couple materials and includes 2 beautifully crafted leather-style journals with all of your worksheets for the year, exclusive access to the Grace Marriage journal experience website with bonus materials and a digital resource toolbox.

If you’re wondering whether this fits into your budget, we encourage you to take a thoughtful look at your finances and consider finding the resources to prioritize your marriage.
