5-Star Rating

"After Dave's biblical training, I learned to engage others with confidence in Scripture, share God's truth with love, and point them to His Word. It even transformed how I disciple in my own home as a father and husband."

Most churches have no one trained to help a marriage in crisis.

Let's Face It...

Many Believers Want To Help Struggling Marriages But Feel Utterly Unqualified

Your heart aches seeing couples struggle, and you long to offer biblical hope—but that quiet doubt about your own readiness keeps you from reaching out when it matters most.

You Lack Practical, Biblical Steps

You listen compassionately to stories of conflict and distance, wishing you had clear, gentle ways to apply God's Word that could bring real healing and direction.

You Lack Time for Lengthy, Costly Training

Busy seasons of life make years of seminary or certification unrealistic—too much time and money when you're called to serve faithfully right now.

Hello,

My name is Dave Whalen and I used to have an awful marriage.

For 18 years I was trapped in what seemed like a terrible marriage that was unescapable. When my wife and I first got married, we had committed that divorce was not an option, but as our children grew up and were about to leave the house, we figured out that we needed help or we would be destined to be room mates. We went through biblical counseling, and now our marriage is awesome. We even both got certified through the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors, a process which took a little over two years and cost over $1,000.

I have had the privilege of discipling several married couples and walking them through their troubles - troubles with adultery, communication, biblical marriage roles, and an array of other problems which plague modern marriages.

Here is what I've learned through all of it: you, as a Christian, are competent to mentor other Christians. You don't need years of seminary training or the expense of formal certification. You need to be trained how to come alongside people in specific ways that relate to the problems they are having.

Once you understand what the Bible says about particular problems people face in this life, you will be unlimited in your potential to come alongside hurting marriages and help them through it. That is what inspired me to build the 12-Week Marriage Mentor, a course for everyday believers who are called to come alongside struggling marriages using Scripture as the foundation, regardless of their theological education or experience.

Since I have started mentoring married couples, I have seen marriages transformed from disasters into God-honoring marriages which reflect Christ's relationship to His church. People are blown away that these concepts, principles, and applications are not taught in the church, and they are eager to learn more. I have also taught several in-person trainings which have equipped believers in the practices of biblical mentorship, enabling them to help their brothers and sisters in need.

I hope you're as excited as I am for you to begin this journey!  I host a weekly Q&A call every single week in our private community, I hope to meet you soon!

Who Is This Course For?

  • You see marriages hurting around you and want to offer more than "I'll pray for you"—you desire real, gentle tools to point couples to Christ.

  • You're passionate about God's design for marriage and ready to obey the call to strengthen others, without needing a degree or credential.

  • You're an everyday believer (parent, professional, or ministry volunteer) who wants to start mentoring faithfully; right now, not after expensive training.

Who Is This Course NOT For?

  • Someone who believes secular frameworks are sufficient for marriage problems.

  • Someone who believes mentoring belongs only to credentialed professionals.

  • Someone unwilling to bring the full authority of Scripture into hard conversations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What skill level is this program for?

This program is designed for beginners with no prior counseling or mentoring experience - everyday lay believers who feel called to help but don't know where to start. We'll build your confidence and skills from the ground up with practical, Scripture-based tools.

It's also valuable if you have some informal experience (e.g., leading small groups or listening to friends) and want structured biblical frameworks to make your mentoring more effective.

No advanced skills or certification required - just a heart to serve and obey God's Word.

How long do I have access to the program & when does it start?

You get lifetime access to all course materials, including videos, worksheets, templates, and any future updates—so you can revisit the content whenever you need a refresher or want to train others.

The course is available now. You get immediate access the moment you enroll, plus every future update.

Can't I learn all of this on Youtube?

It's a fair question as YouTube has plenty of marriage advice videos. But most are scattered, inconsistent, and mix worldly psychology with shallow Scripture references, leaving you piecing together fragments without clear progression.

This course is different: A structured, 12-week biblical framework focused purely on God's sufficient Word—complete with ready-to-use session templates, heart-level diagnostics, and private community support. No endless searching or risking unbalanced teaching.

You'll gain confident, reproducible mentoring skills efficiently, something random videos can't deliver. It's the fast track to faithful, eternal impact.

Do I need to have formal certification, a counseling degree, or prior experience before starting?

No. Many believers hesitate to mentor marriages because they think formal certification, a degree, or extensive counseling experience is required. That's a common misconception.

Scripture calls every mature believer to disciple others (Titus 2:3-5; Romans 15:14), and lay mentoring in churches thrives without credentials; just biblical wisdom and a humble heart.

This course equips everyday laypeople like you from the ground up with practical, Scripture-based tools. No prior experience needed; we'll build your confidence step by step so you can start helping couples faithfully and effectively.

Should I invest in 12-Week Marriage Mentor before investing in more well-known marriage mentoring courses?

Yes. Absolutely start here if your goal is practical equipping to mentor struggling couples biblically as a layperson.

While there are some established resources, most well-known marriage programs focus on enriching a couple's own relationship or require formal certification, not streamlined training with ready-to-use templates, heart-level tools, and community support for everyday believers.

This course uniquely bridges the gap: Affordable, self-paced, no prerequisites, just faithful, reproducible skills to make eternal impact now. Many "popular" options complement it beautifully later, but this gets you mentoring confidently faster.
