The best program ever for marriage-minded singles!
Don't mess up the most important decision of your life...

WHAT IS IT? An educational and entertaining program on dating relationships and partner selection. The program presents a set of simple and practical concepts for keeping your head and your heart in balance while searching for a mate.

WHY DO WE NEED IT? At one time or another, we have thought about that old saying, "LOVE IS BLIND." It may have led you to wonder if you could ever... FOLLOW YOUR HEART WITHOUT LOSING YOUR MIND. In other words, is there really any explanation for why love is blind? Do we have any hope for learning how to avoid marrying a jerk or jerkette (this program is for BOTH males and females)? The answer is a resounding... YES!!!! Much, if not all, of what a person will be like can be clearly predicted during dating. Your mind needs to know what to look for in order to shape an accurate profile of the person you are dating. And your heart needs to know how to keep proper balances between the bonding forces which form the attachment in your growing relationship.

Based upon a thorough review of research pertaining to this subject, the P.I.C.K. (Premarital Interpersonal Choices & Knowledge) Program EXHAUSTIVELY and HUMOROUSLY describes:

THE MAJOR AREAS THAT PREDICT WHAT A PERSON WILL BE LIKE IN MARRIAGE,
and
THE BONDING FORCES THAT MUST BE KEPT IN BALANCE AS A RELATIONSHIP GROWS.

WHO IS IT FOR? Anyone interested in improving their chances of a successful relationship, or of finding a suitable marriage partner; plus pastors, counselors and youth leaders who are interested in teaching this course.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?  Discounted cost for this workshop is $10 per person.  (Regular price: $25 per person)
