What is ReEngage?

ReEngage is a marriage enrichment small group ministry. Marriages in any condition can benefit, whether you are struggling to get along, your marriage is broken, or you simply want to grow closer together as a couple. Reengage examines God's design for marriage and applies principles from the Bible to guide couples toward growth in their relationship with each other. (Note: This is for one man, one woman couples who are married, and for previously married couples who are separated or divorced but might consider reconciling. If you are an engaged or cohabitating couple, contact Larry Dean to talk about how ReEngage might work for you.)

Frequently Asked Questions

Time & Place
ReEngage meets Wednesday at 6:15pm here at Faith Baptist Church. (“Open Groups” begin in August and January / These “Open Group” transition to “Closed Groups” in September and February…and meet for 14 weeks.)

Can I just come and visit, or do I have to commit to something?
Couples really need to come checkout ReEngage during “Open Groups”. During this time couples can decide if they want to continue when “Closed Group” begins. ReEngage really begins when we begin working through a workbook that invloves weekly homework and weekly meetings with 6-7 other couples.

Do you provide something for our children?
Yes, on Wednesday night we provide exciting ministries for children birth - 12th Grade. Children can be checked in 15 minutes prior to ReEnage start times.

What if my spouse can’t/won’t attend on Wednesday nights?
The small group aspect of ReEngage requires the regular attendance of both spouses to attend “Closed Groups”.

Will I be asked a lot of personal questions at ReEngage?
There is no personal sharing required during “Open Group”. We do, however, highly encourage you to remain active in group discussion once in a “Closed Group”. Personal sharing during small group meetings is always voluntary.

How do I know that what I share at re|engage will be kept confidential? In other words, will it be a safe place to share?
We believe that scripture calls us to refrain from gossip and we ask all participants and facilitators to adhere to the guidelines that what is discussed in the group stays in the group. ReEngage leaders are encouraged to operate under the direction of God’s Word in handling the information shared in the group. In order 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, then to be dealt with under the guidance of the church 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 ReEngage the same as marriage counseling?
ReEngage is not marriage counseling & the leaders are facilitators, not professional counselors. They are, however, growing in their own marriages. Everyone in the group is on the journey to oneness in marriage. We believe that openness & honesty in a small group setting, using a Biblically-based curriculum, is where God works to grow & resurrect marriages.

How much time each week outside of the meeting is required to be part of ReEngage?
Completion of the curriculum will take approximately 20-30 minutes each week. The time required will vary, but it is designed to be short and sweet and get some good conversations going with your spouse.

Our marriage is doing well. Can we benefit by attending re|engage?
Whether your marriage needs to be reignited or is in need of a complete resurrection, ReEngage is a great place for couples to connect and grow in oneness.

We have only been married for a short while. Can we still come?
Absolutely! In fact, participating in ReEngage at this stage in your marriage is an incredible idea! The program will provide a strong foundation for your marriage.

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! There are many couples who have attended or are attending, who are separated. 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 some tools to help grow toward this goal.
