Rules for a Lasting Marriage
January 13, 2026 at 7pm
(1 sessions)
​
​There are three rules for a lasting happy marriage.
Even with love, marriage takes work.
​
This session reviews marriage from the point of initial attraction to romance and being in love to the compatibility love that hopefully follows. What is important tends to be the qualities of character and concern. Being open to making important memories together often keeps relationships fresh and alive.
This will be just a one-week session but with hopefully a lot of good discussion

Better Conversations for Better Relationships and a Better Life
Tuesdays at 7pm
February 17, 2026 - March 10, 2026
​​
All of us can struggle with difficult conversations, but we’re often not very good at the easy ones either.
Most of us overestimate our conversational skills.
Conversation is one of the most complex, demanding, and delicate of all human tasks, rife with possibilities for misinterpretation and misunderstanding. And yet conversations can also be a source of great joy, each one offering an opportunity to express who we are and learn who others are—to feel connected, loved, and alive. Conversing a little more effectively can make a big difference in the quality of our close personal relationships as well as our very important social lives.
This would be a four-week session.
