"Building Better Marriages...
For Life!"

It is difficult to over-emphasize the importance of marriage. It was instituted of God at creation for man's welfare and used as a picture of God's relationship to his people throughout the Bible. A healthy marriage is a great treasure for all: the family, the church, the community and the nation.

With so much value placed on marriage, protecting and strengthening it must be a priority of God's church. Marriage Plus Ministries endeavors to fulfill that responsibility at Jacksonville Chapel.

"Let marriage be held in honor among all..." Hebrews 13:4
