Focus on the Family Targets Young Newlyweds Online

Focus on the Family is turning its online attention to young newlyweds considering parenthood and facing early marriage struggles. The Colorado Springs-based ministry has launched a blog and Web community called “Young Married Life.” It addresses marriage, career, finances, culture and spiritual calling for Generations X and Y couples. “We want to offer a supportive community to couples who might feel a little lost in their transition into marriage,” said Steve Watters, director of Marriage and Parenting Preparation for Focus on the Family. “We especially want to help them realize that they aren’t the only people who have fights about in-laws or how to load the dishwasher the right way.” “Young Married Life” also features a new movie review video called “Reel Discernment.” Featuring Plugged In’s Bob Waliszewski and Cheryl Wilhelmi, “Reel Discernment” gives couples a quick sense for what to expect at the movies to help them better plan their date nights, girls’ nights and guys’ nights.
