Cost: $60 total for the Beloved: The Mystery and Meaning of Marriage and Beloved: Living Marriage courses.

Description: This is the same Beloved courses available through FORMED.org. When accessed through the Augustine Institute the couples will be quizzed throughout the program to ensure that they are learning the material. Upon the completion of the course the couple will receive a certificate for their file. One item of note when using this course for online marriage prep - we ask the couples take both courses, which is about 7 hours of material. Even though the Living Marriage segment is more geared toward married couples, we find that the practical nature of that program complements The Mystery and Meaning of Marriage program, which focuses heavily on theology.
