re|engage FAQ

What are the dates for the semester?

The semester begins with our kick-off dates on August 15 and 22. Groups meet August 29 - December 12. (We will not meet on October 31 or November 28.) We require that you participate in at least 12 of the 14 regular semester meetings.

What are small groups like?

When you and your spouse officially register to join a small group, we will put you in a group with 4-6 other participant couples and a facilitator couple. Together, you will work through the re|engage booklet.

What does a typical night at re|engage look like?

6:15-6:30pm – Childcare check-in
6:30-7:15pm – Large group time (videos, marriage story, and teaching)
7:20-8:20pm – Small group time
8:20-8:30pm – Childcare pickup

Will I be asked a lot of personal questions ?

No personal sharing is required during the large group meeting. Though we encourage you to attend regularly, any personal sharing during the small group meetings is voluntary.

How do I know that what I share will be kept confidential?

The Bible calls us to refrain from gossip and we ask all participants and facilitators to keep what is discussed in the group only in the group. To provide a safe environment, the facilitators have committed to not share information about others outside the group except in the event of the threat of physical, emotional, or spiritual injury, which will then be dealt with under the guidance of re|engage staff.

Can I be honest with people about what is going on in our marriage?

Our prayer is that you will feel safe to share within your small group. We find that the more authentic and transparent couples can be with others, the more they find hope and healing within their marriage.

Is re|engage marriage counseling?

re|engage is not marriage counseling. The leaders are trained facilitators, not counselors. They are also growing in their own marriages. Everyone in the group is on the journey to oneness in marriage. God can use openness and honesty in a small group setting, using biblically-based curriculum, to grow and resurrect marriages.

Can I just come and visit, or do I have to commit to something?

You may join us for the two kick-off nights to learn about re|engage without committing. After that, you may join us for any of our large group meetings without committing to a small group. However, we believe you will receive the most encouragement for your marriage if you commit to both the large and small groups.

How much time each week outside of the meeting is required?

Completion of the re|engage curriculum will take approximately 30-90 minutes each week. The time required will vary, but it is designed to be a manageable time commitment.

Our marriage is doing well. Can we benefit by attending?

Whether your marriage needs to be reignited or needs a complete resurrection, re|engage is a safe place for couples to reconnect.

I don’t know if I’ll have a marriage by the end of the month. Is re|engage a good place for us?

Absolutely! Many couples have attended while separated or divorced. While the outcome is based on the work each individual is willing to do to save their marriage, the platform provides a safe place to focus on what a healthy marriage should look like, and it provides tools to help grow toward this goal.

My spouse and I don’t like spending time with each other anymore. Will we have to interact?

While you will be in a small group together, each of you will be sharing about what you have personally learned each week. Additionally, some exercises may require you to interact with each other throughout the process.

I have no hope anymore. Is this a place where we can find hope?

Our prayer is that you will find hope that can come through allowing God to do a mighty work within your marriage.

We are newly married. Can we still come?

If you are a newly married couple older than 30, please join us. In fact, participating in re|engage at this stage in your marriage is a great idea! If you are younger than 30 and married for less than 6 years, we encourage you to check out our Foundation groups.
