Church Small Group Bundle

We’ve bundled everything you need for a small group of up to 10 people to complete this study—saving you more than $60!

This study introduces the five broken Attachment Styles—what we call Love Styles—that interfere with intimacy and healthy communication in relationships. By identifying the insecure attachment patterns many of us developed in our childhood homes, we can begin a process of healing, skill-building, and spiritual growth that leads us toward greater wisdom and maturity, becoming more like Christ (Ephesians 4:13–16).

As group members gain insight into their bonding blueprint and how it shapes their relational reactions, this understanding provides a foundation for practicing our primary tool: The Comfort Circle. This guided process helps participants slow down charged conversations so they can connect emotionally, and communicate with empathy and clarity.

Ultimately, the goal is for every participant to grow toward becoming a Secure Connector. Rooted in more than eighty years of attachment research and supported by modern neuroscience, this framework shows us God’s design for healthy, secure, and deeply connected relationships—with Him and with one another.

Group Participants: Each group member needs their own Participant Guide and a copy of the book, How We Love.

What is the Content and Length of the Study?

We published the book, How We Love, to strengthen marriages, but the Attachment research we drew on and the solutions we developed are capable of enhancing any type of relationship. Your Love Style – or Attachment Style – is primarily activated and expressed in your closest relationships, often marriage or a serious dating relationship. It can also be expressed between friends, boss and employer, or parent and child.

We believe that this study will not only strengthen marriages but also prevent divorce. We know this material also helps singles. For those that have never been married this is an opportunity to better understand the frustrating patterns in their dating relationships and for those who are divorced, they can better understand why previous marriages did not work out and how they can approach marriage differently.

The study has 9 sessions – two videos per session as well as a training video per session for leaders/facilitators and our recommended “best practices” document to help your church maximize impact of the program. As with most successful programs, the more intentional you are about the process, the more people grow and improve their marriage and relationships over time.
