About This Programme
The Certificate in Ministry in Marriage Short Course is a three-part, self-paced programme designed for pastors, church workers, marriage ministers and those called to walk alongside couples and families. Each course builds on the previous one, starting with the biblical and practical foundations of pastoral counselling in the marriage context, developing through the discipline of prayer as a ministry tool, and culminating in the leadership dynamics needed to lead and nurture healthy families and congregations.
