What Makes a Marriage?
The culture presents an image of Marriage that is filled with strife and devoid of sexuality. This session looks at the realities of marriage, and provides the principles for creating a healthy marriage. By examining the pattern for marriage in the book of Ephesians, this session provides sound principles for modeling our marriages based on Christ’s relationship with the Church.
NFP “Why Session”
Building on the previous two sessions, this session answers common misconceptions about Natural Family Planning, and details the benefits of its use in their future.
This session is presented in three parts.
Part One addresses pharmaceutical contraception, its functions and risks as listed in medication’s doctors’ notes, and what that means for the individual consumer.
Part Two addresses the God’s plan for marriage using the Theology of the Body as it relates to contraception and the Sacrament of Marriage.
Part Three presents the scientific basis behind Natural Family Planning methods, citing specific studies and data, describing in detail why NFP works.
What People Are Saying:
I am pleased to give my blessing on NFPAWARE and their efforts to facilitate and teach the Natural Family Planning methods... Please give them every consideration.
Most Rev. Edward J. Slattery
Bishop Emeritus of the Diocese of Tulsa
More so than any other teacher I have heard, NFPAWARE gives the most competent articulation not only of the science behind NFP, but of the physiological, psychological, societal and moral effects of contraception. As well, they give credible witness to what they profess in how they live their faith.
Rev. Jack A. Gleason
Pastor of St. Mary's Church, Tulsa, OK
I liked the “idea” of Natural Family Planning, but had little education on the “reality” of NFP. After listening to the thoughtful and poised “Why Session” presented by NFPAWARE, I began to feel at ease. Our society has a tendency to mystify and complicate fertility, creating the impression that women are at the mercy of medical intervention to manage their reproductive lives. With the information from the “Why Session” and one-on-one consultations, I am able to decipher the function of each stage of my cycle, without relying on any chemicals, monitors or other interferences. I find it incredibly empowering to now have the tools to understand my own fertility within God’s design.

NFPAWARE presents a cohesive explanation of the scientific principles of Natural Family Planning, expounding in-depth knowledge of the progressive medical studies of the past few decades. They’ve done their research into a field often overlooked by current medical practice and provide a primer that should turn heads in the physician community. Their dynamic presentation is also interactive, enjoyable, and respectable when confronting the personal and emotional topics of sex-life, infertility, and contraception. I’ve recommended my patients and close-friends alike."

NFPAWARE offers the complete package: a natural, scientific answer to one of the most emotional aspects of humanity. Not only are they articulate and professional, but they also understand what couples are thinking and what they are concerned about when it comes to their sex lives..

NFPAWARE Client
In a manner that is compelling, engaging, and informative, NFPAWARE gives the best presentation on Natural Family Planning that I have ever heard. Their passion about the subject is matched by their expertise, and it shows through their ability to encourage couples (and future couples) to use a method of family planning that is safe, simple, and satisfying.
Not only do they present the material, but they also clear up any misconceptions that many do indeed have about NFP. There is not a medical professional, pastor, parish, person or pair of persons that would not benefit from their seminars or instruction.
