Zoe offers the only comprehensive pre-marriage preparation service that is research-based and administered over the Internet. The Zoe process is based on thousands of marriage research findings and the expertise of professional pre-marriage counselors. Zoe prepares you to make your lifetime commitment to each other a success. Do you want a satisfying marriage? Zoe can help.

To a large extent, researchers know what factors help make marriages successful, but much of this knowledge is not published in sources easily available to the general public. Zoe has researched thousands of articles on marriage and relationships and has summarized this information for you. With the Zoe process, you can know what leading marriage and relationship researchers know.

Zoe consists of approximately 350 questions designed to assess your strengths and weaknesses as a couple. You may answer all the questions at one sitting, in which case it will probably take you anywhere from 45 to 90 minutes. You may also begin the questions, log off your computer, and return to finish at a later time, at your convenience. Your answers will be saved and you can resume where you left off.

Zoe covers virtually all areas of relationships and life that are known to affect the success of a marriage. It is important to know as much as possible about your strengths and weaknesses as a couple before you get married. The more you know about yourselves, the greater your success will be as a married couple. To thoroughly cover all of these areas naturally requires a lot of questions. Besides, these are questions and issues that often come up at some point in a marriage. Why not ask them now?

The Zoe categories were developed based on the current research on successful marriages and unsatisfying relationships. The topics covered in these fourteen categories have all been shown to have a significant impact on the success of a marriage.

Research shows that good communication is one of the most important components of a successful marriage. Simply discussing the issues raised in the questions will help you prepare for your marriage. Spending some time together talking about the issues raised in the questions and your responses to those issues will help you strengthen your communication skills. After you are married, there will be many important issues you will need to talk about in your lives together. Why not get started now?

Zoe was developed for pre-marriage couples and was designed to help you identify your strengths and weaknesses as a couple. Zoe's goal is to improve your relationship before AND after you are married. A low score in an area means that you may want to pay special attention to those issues. These are areas in which you both may need to grow, and knowing where you need to focus is the first step in that growth. Marriage is a decision that can only be made by the two of you and Zoe is a tool to help you prepare for your life together.

Zoe scores are not "right" or "wrong". Zoe scores point out areas of strength and weakness in your relationship based on leading marriage research. Look closely at the research summaries to find out why you scored as you did. What matters is your ability as a couple to discuss and understand your scores, even if you disagree with them. Remember, being able to discuss and communicate about important issues helps you prepare for a successful marriage.

Yes. Zoe was designed and developed for pre-marriage couples. However, Zoe provides valuable information about numerous marriage topics that can apply to married couples. That knowledge is always important. Moreover, by using Zoe with an Advisor, you can address the areas in which you need to grow and improve your marriage.

Zoe is extremely flexible and can be used by a couple in sessions with a professional counselor, clergy member or mentor. It's up to you to identify an Advisor you feel you can work with. Your family or friends may be able to recommend someone who is a professional counselor, clergy member or mentor.
