Resources for Churches
Austin and Rachel offer a variety of in-person and online resources for Churches and ministries.
“Marriage Night” Workshops: Austin and Rachel create custom workshops that are 100% interactive, engaging and exciting. Couples will be on their feet, connecting like never before in no time.
Connection Cards Workshops: Austin and Rachel facilitate “game nights” using their Connection Cards and will monitor the room and help couples get through conversation glitches that may come up. These are very fun, interactive and effective!
The Foundations Course: Austin and Rachel have produced a “done for you” 6 week marriage program called “Foundations”. Centered around Biblical values and proven relationship strengthening techniques, in this program couples will learn:
- How to identify the core values their marriage stands for.
- A vision statement for their marriage.
- Agreements which help shape day to day success in their marriage.
- How to appreciate each other and create vibrant connection.
- How to communicate with ease, and dissolve conflict.
The “Foundations” course is something we like to call a “Marriage Ministry in a Box” that churches offer to their life groups, small groups, or special 6 week marriage focus groups. Many life groups who use the program now will have 5-10 couples meeting in someone’s home every week for 6 or 12 weeks and have had incredible success.
Any leader can lead the Foundations Course. The Foundations Course is fully produced – every step has already been thought of, developed and planned for. It includes:
- Leaders Guide: Breaks down every step of the process, detailed layout of the flow of each session, etc.
- Leaders Coaching Video: This is a video training for Foundations leaders to prep them to lead a group of couples through the program.
- Couples Workbooks: These are beautiful workbooks that you can either purchase or print yourselves!
- Video Lessons: Every week contains a video lesson taught personally by Austin and Rachel.
Custom Options: If you can articulate the needs of your Church as it pertains to marriage ministry, we can come up with a solution for you.

I wish to fully endorse the Marriage Matters marriage enrichment program. The intent, the curriculum, and the delivery is really exceptional. In today’s society there is nothing more important than strong marriages. Good marriages take work and because the success factors are not intuitive, couples need guidance. The Holts have developed a great program that will help you develop the tools and insights to make your marriage the marriage you always hoped it would be.
If you’re looking to strengthen your marriage look no further! Because Marriage Matters is the program for you. Austin and Rachel Holt can guide you to a more satisfying and enriching marriage. I wish all my counseling couples were a part of the BMM process. I can’t recommend BMM highly enough to you!
“Because Marriage Matters is an incredible resource that I strongly recommend for couples of all ages and backgrounds. The thoughtful design is engaging and impactful, yet fun. Rachel and Austin are masters at empowering couples to learn, understand and grow in ways that promote growth, both as individuals and as couples. They live what they teach, always stretching themselves as they honoring each other and the sacrament of marriage, which makes them authentic and real. If you are looking for a way to grow and deepen your relationship with your spouse, go no further, you have found it!”
