The Never Alone Initiativeconsists of three strategies of sermons, conferences, and classes which will strengthen relationships in your church plus outreach in the community. The Never Alone Initiative begins by asking, "What is God receiving from this relationship?" God desires to receive glory and pleasure from our marriages, families, and single adult friendships-
"Worthy art Thou, our Lord and our God, to receive glory and honor... for thy good pleasure they are created" (Revelation 4:11).
Sermon Series and Marriage Covenant Renewal - Churches all across the U.S. and overseas are participating in the Never Alone Initiative by preaching one of the experiential sermons available for download for free from our site. Couples will renew their Marriage Covenant during the sermon series using Covenant Marriage Commitment cards. Follow-up Resources can be made available for purchase by those who experience the Sermon Series (For resources and Marriage Covenant Renewal Cards contact Janean Allen 800-881-8008, ext. 205).

Relational Weekend Workshops and Retreats - The Never Alone Initiative serves churches and communities through serving with churches and denominations hosting Relational Weekend Workshops. Weekend relationship strengthening Workshops are being scheduled by churches throughout the year. All participants will experience scripture lived out in their relationship with God and with others. All participants will be challenged to ask a different question concerning their closest relationships. Some participants will become equipped and motivated to minister to others, leading classes and groups as follow-up to the Workshops. (Download one of the packages listed to the right with specific details or contact Kim Friesz 800-881-8008, ext. 226)

Relational Ministry Courses or Mentor Groups - Never Alone Follow-up Courses are an on-going part of local church ministry that help participants "go deeper" in their experience of really living and experiencing the Word of God as a life-style in their relationships with God and with others. The format of these courses is typically 8 to 16 sessions, weekly or biweekly. Each session is one to two hours, and they are home or church-based.
