Secrets of Successful
Relationships Seminar

"The marriage class
taught us communication
tools that have helped us
to keep in touch and
current with each other.
We learned to deal
promptly with small
issues, before they get to
be serious problems."

taking this class.  Not

time together to think
about our marriage but it

tools to strengthen and

"Pam and Don are the  
perfect combination of
humble, practical, and
humorous.  Their
complementary styles
and diverse skills as
leaders made their
marriage seminar a joy to
attend.  We were grateful
for the wealth of wisdom
and insight that they
offered.  I'm sure any
marriage would benefit
from spending time with
these two!"

the marriage class.
   In a series of landmark studies, researchers have identified exactly
what people who succeed in intimate relationships do differently
than those who fail. They discovered a core set of emotional habits
that are so powerfully positive that, when people have them, they
end up having satisfying long-term relationships over 90% of the
time. This four-week course involves an exploration of the core set
of emotional habits that are needed to succeed in a love
relationship. You’ll learn how people who get their partners to treat
them well go about doing it.

   This seminar is packed with cutting-edge information and
practical methods for improving relationships.  Come with a partner
or by yourself.  Either way, you'll leave with a new understanding
of what it takes to make an intimate relationship work.
