Marriage Resources

Marriage is the first institution created by God and the foundation of the family. We value marriage as the most important relationship other than your relationship with the Lord. Throughout the year, FBCF will offer workshops, events, Bible studies, and more opportunities for godly growth in your relationships.

Pre-Marital and Marital Christian Counseling

God created marriage to display His glory and to bring His creatures joy. Through this gift, we are called to consider not only God’s covenantal love but also His incredible patience and unconditional mercy toward His beloved. Because this takes effort and intentionality, we strongly encourage engaged couples to supplement their marriage preparation through formal premarital Christian counseling at least six months before their wedding.

All couples about to be married are taken through a program called FOCCUS: Facilitating Open Couple Communication, Understanding & Study. Some topics we cover are Family of Origin, Intimacy, Religion, Spirituality, Value, Communication, Readiness Issues, Problem Solving, Parenting Issues, Friends, and Interests.

For Marital and Pre-Marital Christian Counseling, contact:
Pastor Aaron Scarborough at ascarbrough@fbcforney.org

Note: First Baptist Forney provides Christian Pastoral Counseling governed by the local church and not via a state-licensed agency.

Marriage Ministry Workshops

FBC Forney partners with Grace Marriage to offer a Marriage Ministry Workshop with multiple sessions throughout the year. Sessions are led by Pastor Aaron Scarbrough, Pastor of Adults, and are for all couples, whether married for one week or 68 years. 

Please see the registration link in the Event section below for details.

Parenting Resources

We desire to equip and empower parents to be the primary faith trainers of their children while building a Christ-centered home. We want to help you disciple your kids intentially and biblically through resources, workshops and events.

Parent Conference - Confident Parenting in an Unpredictable World

With Jimmy Scroggins & Kristin Scroggins. Based on their book, Full Circle Parenting

Friday, April 24 | 6:00–9:00 PM (Dinner included)

Saturday, April 25 | 8:30 AM–12:30 PM (Breakfast included)

Parenting isn’t for wimps. Beyond routines and discipline, one of the greatest challenges parents face is navigating hard conversations with their kids. In this conference, Jimmy and Kristin Scroggins—married more than 25 years and parents of eight—will equip you to approach those conversations with biblical confidence and grace. Using the 3 Circles gospel framework (God’s design, brokenness, and the gospel), they’ll provide a simple, practical “conversation map” you can use with your children on today’s toughest topics, helping you parent faithfully in an unpredictable world.
