Marriage Resources

Resources to help those seeking to strengthen their marriage.

Groups, Events & Courses

Many of our small groups are specifically designed for married couples or families. Groups across all our campuses can be found at ncc.re/groups. Here, you can filter by family-friendly options (childcare provided or kids included), groups specifically for couples and families, or groups focused on marriage, parenting, finances, and more!

  • A New Way to Love
    Sundays at 5:00pm
    In this group you can find laughter and connection with other couples while learning and practicing essential skills for godly and resilient relationships.
  • Military Small Group
    Mondays at 6:30pm (childcare provided)
    This group offers a welcoming and supportive space where service members can grow spiritually and connect with others who understand military life.
  • Grown & Flown – “New Season, Same Faithful God”

  • DivorceCare @ NCC
    Mondays at 6:30pm
    You don’t have to go through it alone. Most people will tell you that separation and divorce are the most painful and stressful experiences they’ve ever faced.
