For Your Marriage

The Marriage 911: First Response program has been used for years to help people who are struggling in their marriage learn healthy and productive ways to deal with their difficult circumstances. This Christ-centered 12 week program helps you to place your focus and energy into areas that can first help you remain/become healthy and whole in the midst of a crisis, and commonly becomes the foundational keys to turning around a troubled marriage.

The National Institute of Marriage has produced this program in partnership with Joe and Michelle Williams because we know it works. For close to 20 years the Williams have been developing and using these principles and materials to help thousands of people in similar states of marriage distress combine the own commitment, energy, and effort with the power of God to see amazing, and frequently unexpected, results. In fact, with divorce in their pasts, prior to becoming Christians, Joe and Michelle used these very same principles to find their own reconciliation after a painful and frustrating two-year separation. They know what it means to have a marriage crisis! Our combined efforts and expertise are enabling us together to help more people than either of us could possibly do alone.

Individual Resources and Descriptions

Marriage 911: First Response Workbook

This workbook is designed to be used by a person whose marriage is in crisis. The workbook offers 12 weeks of personal stories, meaningful insights, tools, exercises, activities, and recommendations. The program helps that individual stay focused on his/her relationship with God, on personal health (emotionally, spiritually, mentally and physically), on gaining a Godly perspective (toward themselves, their spouse, and their relationship), and to postpone making any major marriage related decisions during a time when most do not have a clear perspective. The workbook provides hope and direction--even with an unwilling spouse.

These questions are also in the workbook and the person in crisis is instructed to answer them during the week and be ready to discuss his/her answers during a weekly one-hour meeting with the support partner.
