Frequently Asked Questions

Do we have to be engaged to go through Two to One?

Yes. This program is specifically designed for engaged couples.

Do we have to attend a North Point Ministries church?

We are excited to be able to offer this program to any engaged couple in the Atlanta area.

What if we don’t have six months until our wedding date?

If there is not a long wait list, we might be able to match you with a mentor couple. Please email our coordinator at premarital@northpoint.org to see if we can work with your time frame. If you have less than four months until your wedding, we recommend contacting one of the professional counselors in our network.

Who are the mentor couples?

Our mentors are trained volunteers that have been married at least five years and demonstrate maturity in their relationship with God and wisdom in their marriage.

How do you match us with a mentor couple?

There are a variety of factors involved in the matching process. We try to align schedules, look at locations, and consider life experiences. For example, if your situation involves a step-family, we’ll try to match you with a mentor couple with step-family experience.

Where do we meet with our mentor couple?

Most couples meet in their mentors’ home.

What curriculum do you use?

We use a structured curriculum that provides excellent preparation in areas key to a successful marriage: communication, conflict resolution, finances, intimacy, and family. We also utilize the Prepare-Enrich inventory, an online tool that assesses a couple’s strength and growth areas.

How much does it cost?

The $185 registration fee includes two workbooks, the Prepare-Enrich assessment, The 5 Love Languages book, and eight sessions with a mentor couple.

How many sessions are there, and how long are they?

There are eight sessions, and they can last anywhere from one to two hours, depending on the needs of the couple.

What if this is not my first marriage?

If either you or the person to whom you are engaged has been previously married, we recommend that your wedding date be at least two years from the date of your divorce if you’d like to participate in Two to One. If you don’t have that two-year window, we recommend professional counseling for your premarital preparation. Please fill out this form for a personalized referral: Request Counseling Referral.
