The Biblical Foundation

Genesis 2:24

One Flesh

Marriage was God's idea from creation — a one-flesh covenant that mirrors His own triune love. Our counseling is grounded in this original design.

Ephesians 5:22-33

Covenant Love

Husbands are called to love like Christ; wives to respect and submit as to the Lord. We unpack what this looks like in practice — not as a power structure but as a gospel picture.

1 Corinthians 13

Love as a Verb

The love described by Paul is patient, kind, not easily angered, keeps no record of wrongs. Marriage counseling at RHM is a school in this love — for both spouses.

Colossians 3:13

Forgiveness as Foundation

"Forgive as the Lord has forgiven you." True marriage restoration is not possible without the gospel of forgiveness. We teach what forgiveness means — and what it doesn't.
