It all started when…
We (Mike and Diane Siri) realized we had been deceived into believing we should be content with a good marriage - when God created it to be EPIC. We received a new revelation of what marriage was created to be, and began to pray and talk about what that looked like and how to achieve it. Through a journey of growing in intimacy with our self, with God and then with each other, we discovered the joy that is available when we pursue God’s plan instead of the world’s. An ever increasing joy!
“EPIC MARRIAGE WORKSHOP”
In 2012, we felt God calling us to partner with each other in counseling and teaching to work with couples who desire to experience what scripture identifies as a properly beautiful relationship. The Epic Marriage Workshop and Epic Marriage Participant Guide were birthed out of our desire to share with other couples our joy in moving closer to an epic marriage.
The Epic Marriage Workshop is an multi-session course designed to help couples live out what God created and intends marriage to be. By gaining a better understanding of self, God and each other, couples will learn what a covenant relationship requires and the great benefits it provides. It is presented through either an intensive weekend format or as an 8-week series. Recent participants said:
“The Epic Marriage Workshop gave us an amazing insight into what marriage was designed to be, how amazing it can be and the role we play individually and together in creating an epic marriage!”
“This workshop has amazing tools to improve marriage no matter where you are in your relationship with your spouse.“
The Epic Marriage Workshop is also effective for unmarried couples who have made the commitment to enter into a marriage relationship.
At this time, Epic Marriage Workshops are being conducted with couples on an individual basis only. Contact us to set up a consultation.
Additionally, future group workshops are being planned as scheduling permits. WATCH THIS SPACE FOR DATES AND REGISTRATION INFORMATION.
“I CHOOSE YOU” ADDED
Through a partnership with Upstream Arts Collective the original musical “I Choose You” became a part of Epic Marriage Workshop in 2015. Dave and Kate Hathway created the show for the purpose of encouraging couples to strive for what God created marriage to be and to celebrate the joy that He gives to us as a result.
The initial concept of I Choose You was a simple cabaret of songs and thoughts related to love and marriage. But through the creative gifts of Dave and Kate, it took on a life of its own, evolving into a depiction of what happens when two hearts are forged together in the redemptive and refining fire of Christ love. The story they tell will stir your emotions as it connects to your own relationship experience. The show’s impact can best be described through one recent viewers comment: “I simply didn’t want it to end!”
Couples participating in the Epic Marriage Workshop will have the opportunity to enjoy “I Choose You” as part of their experience. In addition, Upstream Arts Collective offers the show periodically at The Relationship Center or by request from other organization.
