Marriages Under God is a Home Bible Study for couples of all ages whether they are married or seriously considering marriage. The primary theme is marriage, family, and relationships.

Statistics indicate that 5 out of every 10 marriages fail today. Of those that last a lifetime, only 1 – 2 find true intimacy and happiness. We believe that these statistics fall far short of God’s ideal for marriage and the family. MUG is God’s ministry. During the Christmas season of 1995, God led Fred and Lori Shumake to establish MUG. The first meeting was conducted in February 1996, and MUG has been going ever since.

 

Marriages Under God seeks to build strong, God-centered families. Desired outcomes include:
- Strong personal relationship with God… to know God

- Incredible love for one another
- Healing where needed
