| 0:00.0 | Today on The Girl Define Show, we are talking about how pre-marital counseling can either |
| 0:03.9 | break or make your future near it. |
| 0:07.4 | This may seem crazy to some of y'all, and we didn't actually plan to do this, but when |
| 0:11.6 | Dave and I were dating, so we went through pre-engagement counseling, which is something |

| 1:07.1 | Why it is so crucial for every couple to pursue serious, intentional, biblically based, |
| 1:13.6 | good pre-marital counseling before you get married, whether it's pre-engagement or before |
