Prepare to Last
Begin Marriage Together
At Prepare To Last, we want to walk with you in this amazing adventure called marriage!
We’ll give you what you need for great premarital counseling with awesome marriage preparation tips, but we don’t want to be just another premarital resource that tells you how to do marriage and then sends you off on your own. After all, it’s learning how to apply that knowledge after you say “I Do” that matters most, right?
We stay with you through the first five years of marriage, accessible through the online community of marriage mentors!
Just consider us trusted guides who’ve been down this path and know about the incredible journey that awaits. We’ll tell you what areas to avoid and the cool places to explore. We’ll walk with you through the valleys and celebrate with you on the mountaintops of all you’ve accomplished!

We’re Jeff and Debby McElroy.
Years ago, we devoted our lives to ministering to students and kids. We led camps every week of the summer for 19 years around the country, and spoke to tens of thousands of kids at stadium events and music festivals. As we talked to more students, though, we realized they weren’t the problem. Most of them would be ok if we could improve their home life! So we switched our focus to marriage and family ministry about 30 years ago to continue to help kids through the back door of their home.
While we speak to thousands at our marriage and family conferences around the country each year, the thing we’ve become most passionate about is helping nearly/newlywed couples start their marriage off right! WE LOVE BEING MARRIED and we want other couples to experience lasting, fulfilling marriage, too.

I don’t know of a better way to prepare a couple for marriage than this engaging resource.
It is a unique experience for couples who want to have a life-long healthy marriage.
