Intimate Encounters is an 8 to 10 week marriage course based on the book Intimate Encounters written by David and Teresa Ferguson and Terri Ferguson Snead.  The book is subtitled, "a practical guide to discovering the secrets of a really great marriage."  This course is very intensive and requires a definitive commitment of participants.  Regular attendance and completion of homework (reading and completing questions in the book) is essential to take full advantage of the class.  It is not for the faint of heart, but when followed completely, it has the power to change your marriage.  In our opinion this class is both relevant and beneficial whether you are engaged, newly married or married for decades.
