the kairos date night

Mark your calendars for a moment in time that has the capacity to change the direction of your marriage (or your future marriage). Talk through what Josh called the 7 Marks of Family — or make your own marks! No matter what, start setting the True North for each of these critical areas, and spend time on your date debating, sparking, and creating ideas around the things that matter most in this life you are forging.

Below you will find The Seven Marks of Family and Josh's True North statements along with some Date Night Q's, and a Kairos Date Night Printable Worksheet. Enjoy!
