Coach Training Testimonials

This ministry brings hope to my heart for my marriage, for other’s marriages and for our ability to influence other marriages for Christ. I liked the focus and structure because it puts the emphasis on allowing the Holy Spirit to do his work rather than us.

Eugene. Husband

What I loved about the training is that the coaching process starts working immediately, the first session. I love that the process allows for clear and safe communication with the focus on listening to your teammate and understanding. The program doesn’t allow couples to dwell on problems but leads them to explore new options of interacting, which guides them to resolutions, improving the relationship immediately.

Vancouver. Wife

I am leaving this training with a sense of “I can DO THIS! I can coach other couples!” The material makes sense to me. It has a logical and practical system and flow that builds positive communication and personal growth.

Portland. Husband

The MarriageTeam ministry is the best tool I’ve seen to release couples in our churches to be trained to help facilitate stronger marriages. I have never experienced such a practical resource to strengthen marriages as the program that MarriageTeam offers.

Training at Your Location

MarriageTeam will conduct marriage coach training at your location (Covid-19 restrictions TBD) outside of the Portland OR/Vancouver WA area if you have a minimum of 18 couples who are definitely interested in becoming volunteer coaches with MarriageTeam.

Training at your location requires a commitment from the pastoral staff to refer couples to MarriageTeam for placement with the newly trained coach couples. These coach couples serve their local church and community as referrals and requests for help are received.



Training requires 24 hours of classroom instruction and five practicum coaching sessions.

This graduate-level training is typically conducted over two back-to-back weekends or 4 consecutive days. This allows time for assimilation of the skills and some light couple homework. If done over 4 days, it does require completion of some pre-training exercises. 100% of the couples who complete the training say they would recommend it to another couple.

The financial arrangements for training at other locations are arranged on a case-by-case basis with the hosting organization.
