| dc.description.abstract | This project sought to equip members of Lakewood Baptist Church, Pewaukee, Wisconsin, for marriage mentorship ministry. Chapter 1 presents the history and background of Lakewood, the rationale for this project, and the goals for success. Chapter 2 provides exegesis of four passages of Scripture (Gen 2:18-3:21; Eph 5:22-33; 1 Pet 3:1- 7, Titus 2:1-8) to establish instructions for mentoring couples to a healthy and biblical marriage. Chapter 3 establishes mentorship as an effective tool to combat cultural opposition to biblical marriage and to support couples through the challenges of marriage. Chapter 4 describes the project, explains the implementation of the curriculum, and gives the results of the rubrics. Chapter 5 evaluates the effectiveness of the project based on completion of the specified goals. Ultimately, this project sought to equip an initial group of couples in marriage mentorship for the launch of a marriage mentorship ministry at Lakewood. | en_US |
