Meet our Marriage Pastor

Dave Lanuti

Dave Lanuti oversees Hope’s Marriage Ministry. After eleven years as a teacher, Dave joined Hope’s staff in 2013 and became the Apex Campus Pastor in 2014. In 2018, he became the Marriage Pastor because he is passionate about helping couples strengthen their marriages. Dave and his wife, Cindy have a son and a daughter. His experience as a father and love of the gospel led him to write Hope for Parents, which goes from Genesis to Revelation to unpack scripture as the ultimate parenting guide.

We all need encouragement when it comes to marriage. Our marriage pastor and our team of marriage mentors are here
to help.

Guide for getting started.

Below is our recommendation for using our curriculum. Before the scheduled group discussions: 

  • Print out two copies of the Marriage Circles Workbook—one for you and one for your spouse. 
  • Spend time on your own reading the included Bible verses and jotting down your responses to each discussion question. 
  • Schedule a time each week for a 1-on-1 conversation with your spouse to share your written responses before your
    group meets. If you aren’t having weekly 1-on-1 conversations with your spouse to review your responses, you aren’t doing Marriage Circles! Put this on the calendar or it may not happen. 
  • Use the suggested “conversation starters” any time throughout the week to connect meaningfully. 
  • Complete the weekly “challenges.” (Spoiler: Some are especially fun!) 
  • At your comfort level, be ready to share about your experience and responses with the group. 

Every marriage needs encouragement.

Marriage Circles was designed for married couples to complete in groups with other couples. It’s possible for you to work through the entire workbook with only your spouse, but you will be missing a vital aspect of growing in marriage: community with others. Your struggles are not unique. Sharing and hearing from other couples will encourage both your marriage and theirs. 

To begin, find at least one other couple (no more than 5 couples) who will agree to join you. If you’re in a small group that is entirely comprised of married couples, you can start there!
