"The LORD God said, 'It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.'" Genesis 2:18

God made Adam and placed him in a perfect home with satisfying work to do. But when he surveyed Adam's situation, God said, "It is not good for man to be alone." (Gen. 2:18) Loneliness is toxic for human beings. The Psalmist recognized this and observed that "God places the lonely in families." (Psa. 68:6) Modern society tends to isolate people from one another and a major contributor to the resulting loneliness is the breakdown of family structures. The Wichita Church of Christ is committed to building up the families of our members.

Marriages are the foundation of family life. Thus improving marriage relationships is a top priority. Two of our members, Ken and Lana Johnson, have been trained and certified to facilitate Dynamic Marriage classes developed by Family Dynamics, Incorporated. Dynamic Marriage classes utilize interactive, group dynamics to provide married participants relationship skills that will improve any marriage. Click here to request information about upcoming classes.

Ken recently completed a Masters degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and plans to use this training to minister to families, both in the church and in the community. Using Biblical truth and the latest research in marriage and family, the Wichita Church of Christ ministers to families by providing regular marriage and parenting workshops and classes.
