After
serving as a minister for fifteen years, large training contracts for thousands
of employees and lucrative speaking engagements propelled Joe into the corporate
training world. Only one thing lacked--his sense of mission. In his heart, he
felt compelled to do for families what he was doing for corporate employees.
In
1994, Joe founded the nonprofit organization, Family Dynamics Institute. He developed
FDI's programs using the best material from world-renowned family researchers
and educators. In founding Family Dynamics, Joe wanted to do more than just educate
couples. He wanted to change the way they live and love so that their marriages
would be all that God wants them to be. To do this, Joe developed a form of marital
psychoeducation that combines a solid knowledge of Scripture with knowledge of
marriage principles, human behavior, group dynamics, and unique educational methods.
This system does more than educate the mind; it reaches the heart and the soul
to create true spiritual growth and an amazing increase in love.
Family
Dynamics' interactive seminars and courses form the most complete and effective
programs you can use to change lives. FDI's insightful and entertaining training
enriches thousands of families across the nation. Thousands of churches across
the United States use Family Dynamics' marriage enrichment courses to reach out
to their communities and prevent marriage trouble inside their churches. These
congregations have learned that "an ounce of prevention is worth more than
a pound of cure."
