Relationship Reality Frequently Asked Questions |
|

Please click on the “Register” tab in the menu and it will take you to the registration site for the next seminar date. |
 |
| Is Relationship Reality intended to be marriage counseling or therapy? |
No. Relationship Reality is an educational course designed to convey information to help our attendees think outside the “relationship box” and to understand and view themselves, their mates and their relationship in a way they haven’t done before. With that said, this information may very well have a “therapeutic” affect on our attendees’ relationships and definitely gives them new tools to use in their daily lives to make their relationship better and stronger. |

|
| If our marriage is in trouble, will this seminar help us? |
We believe many marriages can be saved if both parties are committed to doing the “work” that all relationships require, but most of us don’t truly understand what the “work” entails. It is never too late to start working on your relationship. You can always get divorced, but once you pull that trigger, it’s usually impossible to put the relationship back together. Relationship Reality is a resource that may give struggling couples new hope and encouragement to try again and again. |

|
| I am single. Can I still attend and will I benefit from this seminar? |
Of course! The information you learn will help you understand your own behavior better as well as many aspects of relationships which will be extremely useful for your next relationship, whether it results in marriage or not. If you are divorced, it may help you understand what may have gone wrong with your marriage. This knowledge will help you better deal with, and perhaps avoid, the same issues and behavior in the future. |
 |
| Is this seminar appropriate as pre-marital education? |
Absolutely! The earlier you obtain this information, the more you will use it and benefit from it. Some of it entails understanding the future and planning for contingencies and the earlier you plan (and plan well), the more likely you are to succeed in reaching your goals. |
 |
| What is the format of the seminar? Are there tedious workbooks and homework assignments? |
This seminar is intended to be informative and fun. It is a relaxed, open classroom type setting and there are no workbooks and no homework is necessary to complete the seminar. We do some simple exercises during the day designed to make you think and learn. You will receive handouts and of course you may take notes, but you are not required to do anything other than relax, listen and enjoy the day. There is frequent interaction between the speakers and audience and questions are welcome. |
 |
| Why is this only a one-day program while so many other “relationship” type seminars are 3 to 5 days in length? Can we really benefit from only one day? |
We know how difficult it is to take time out of your lives for seminars, especially for families with small children. We have designed the program to deliver maximum benefit in a minimum amount of time. Even a full weekend seminar can create a mental roadblock to attending much less three, four or five days! Our goal is to convey information and make you think, not to “change” anyone during the seminar. This information will help shape or reshape your thinking and your relationship and will be useful to you and your spouse for a lifetime. You will be amazed what you can learn in one day! |
 |
| My spouse and I get along fine right now. What benefit will we get from the seminar? |
The goal is to help couples avoid issues that create major problems in marriages. Relationships change over time and we are all constantly challenged in our daily lives. The more knowledge we have, the better trained and informed we are (forewarned is forearmed), the more prepared we will be to properly respond to the multitude of challenges that occur during a lifetime together. |
 |
| Why is relationship education necessary? |
If you are seriously viewing this website, we believe you know why. Enough said? |
