Beloved: Finding Happiness in Marriage (Leader Guide)

Augustine Institute 

What if marriage is more than a simple contract between two people, based on romance, mutual fulfillment, and basic attraction?  What if woven into the very design of your humanity is a purposeful desire for you to be united with your beloved, creating something new, mysterious, and holy?  What if your marriage is designed to be a vital part of God's work in the world?

In 1 sessions, Beloved explores the essential realities of marriage, dealing with the deepest spiritual, emotional, and practical aspects of what the sacrament means for those preparing to get married as well as those who yearn for a richer married life.  Through Scripture, Tradition, and Church teaching, God's plan for marriage will come alive. 

This Leader's Guide will help you to lead that exploration, giving time-tested tools and advice to make the experience informative, inspirational, and life-changing through: effective use of the videos and guides, impactful discussion questions, detailed teaching, outlines and insights for leadership, help with marriage preparation, and help with marriage enrichment classes/retreats.

You'll see firsthand how to experience the mystery, happiness, and joy of this sacrament - from that first "I do" through the rest of your lives.  Informative and inspirational, Beloved will help you live out the Sacrament of Marriage more profoundly, so that your love story is drawn ever more into the greatest love story of all . . . God's own love for us.
