About the Cohabitation Challenge
"The Cohabitation Challenge is an opportunity for couples to take a step back and assess their relationship with each other, as it relates to their relationship with God. When couples move out, learn about the Biblical Covenant that marriage is, and engage in the marital relationship the way that it was initially intended, they honor God and each other." — Pastor Bryan Carter

We Took The Challenge
CSI really helped us build a strong foundation by improving our communication and helping us understand each other’s values and expectations. It also gave us the tools to handle conflict in healthy ways, which has made our marriage even more resilient. We are truly grateful that we took the opportunity to go through CSI. We would 100% recommend it to any couple looking to take the next step.
Evan and DeAsia Murry, 2022
We thought we were good. Our love was strong and our bills were paid, so no major issues. But CSI showed us that peace isn't the same as purpose. God had more for us and He started showing us what that looked like one session at a time.
Darius & Monique Parker, 2022
We never talked about marriage we just dated to date. We thank God for CSI because God slowed us down. It helped us understand we were building something sacred. We heard each other and saw each other.
