Tend: Before
the Wedding
Five conversations before you say I do.
A premarital workbook for engaged couples — and the pastors who walk alongside them. Built from attachment research and twelve years in pastoral counseling.
The workbook
Most premarital work is either a checklist or a crisis intervention. This is neither. It’s five conversations that go deep enough to actually matter — about conflict, about family of origin, about money, about faith, about what you want your home to feel like.
Built from attachment theory and twelve years walking alongside couples as a pastor. Designed to be used with or without a counselor.
