Welcome to Thrive Marriage Lab
What if God has still more for your marriage?
Does this sound like you?
You want to enrich your marriage, but you don't want to just read a book.
You know you could work on some things, but you don't really need regular marriage counseling.
You've been to marriage conferences, but you're looking for regular input, ongoing support, and a community of growing couples.
You're tired of relational auto-pilot.
Don’t take our word for it

Of course, you can access Thrive from any web-browser anywhere. You will receive login instructions upon joining.

Lots of people are asking about pre-marital membership! When is it right for a not-yet-married couple to join? The answer is YES. If you're engaged or certainly headed toward engagement soon, Thrive is for you, too.
-
Thrive is a faith informed program. Most of our members are currently involved in a Christian community and we will dip into the theological basis for a variety of topics. However, this is not a bible study. We will not be praying or opening the bible or having heavy spiritual conversations. Please reach out if you have more questions.
Is Your Marriage Thriving?
Not sure if Thrive is right for you? That's OK! Our Marriage Assessment can still give you a quick picture of your marriage and offer a few tips to help it grow!
