For churches, campus ministries, marriage-prep programmes and conferences
One session, run for your group, by somebody who has done it for fifteen years.
Somebody has to be able to defend this choice to a board, an elder, or a director. This page is written to be printed and handed to them, and it answers the awkward questions without being asked.
No navigation, no images, and the exact words your people will be told are on it. Made to be read on paper by somebody who has never heard of any of this.
The offer, in full.
John Moelker co-hosts one forty-five-minute session with your group, live on Zoom, and facilitates one scripted conversation himself. You choose which conversation — it does not have to be the money one, and for most programmes it should not be.
Nobody installs anything. Nobody creates an account. Your people need a device and a browser and nothing else. Your programme, your room, your relationships — he is a guest in them for forty-five minutes, and after that you run it yourself.
21 conversations are named, and 21 of them your people can play alone in a browser. One has been written and reviewed. The other 20 are unread drafts — they play, every screen of them says so, and they can equally be RUN LIVE, because a person reading a line off a sheet needs no recording. The chooser below says which is which on every row.
Everything else you might imagine — no dashboard, no login, no licence, no seat, no group report, no curriculum — does not exist, and this page will not pretend otherwise.
The five questions you will be asked.
Answered here so you do not have to come back and ask.
What do we tell our people this is?
A rehearsal. A made-up situation, played by a visiting facilitator, so that people hear themselves answer something difficult once before it is real. It is not counselling, not therapy, not financial advice, and not an assessment of anybody’s relationship.
Nobody is asked to disclose anything about their own money or their own relationship at any point. That single design decision removes most of what could go wrong, and it is said out loud in the first four minutes of the session.
What happens to what our people type?
In the browser rehearsal: a reply is sent to one endpoint carrying the text and the turn number, and nothing else. That endpoint passes it to Anthropic, our AI provider, with a fixed instruction to sort it into one of 8 categories. The category comes back, the matching pre-written line is chosen, and the text is discarded. No database write, no logging of what was written, no analytics carrying content.
The private reflections at the end are never sent anywhere at all. The report is built in the browser. Closing the tab ends it.
In the live session: written responses are read back to the room without names, and any notes kept afterwards carry no name, no email and no identifying detail. Nothing collected trains anything.
Who sees it?
Nobody sees an individual’s answers. Not us, not you, not their leader, not their partner. There is no group report and no aggregate view, because neither has been built and neither would be built without your people being told first.
You see who attended. Say that to your people plainly — it is the reason they will answer honestly instead of performing an answer for the room.
What if something difficult comes up in the room?
Someone will say “this is exactly what happened to me.” It is the most foreseeable moment in the session. It is acknowledged briefly and without alarm, not explored in front of the group, and the room moves on — coming back to it publicly makes it worse.
Afterwards, if it warranted it, there is one private follow-up that points at a real human: usually you, because you are the one with the ongoing relationship and the duty of care.
If anything suggests genuine risk of harm, it stops being a workshop moment. The person is directed to real help, you are told, and whatever duty of care your organisation carries is followed. John is a pastor with one unit of Clinical Pastoral Education. He is not a certified counsellor and the session never implies otherwise.
What does it cost?
$24.95 CAD per participant for the live session. The browser rehearsal is free and stays free.
The reason there is a price is not revenue. Free would tell us nothing about whether this is worth having, and a decision to pay is the only honest version of that answer. It is deliberately low enough not to be the obstacle.
Free places are offered at John’s discretion — founder events, and any time the fee would be the reason not to run it. Ask him; it is not a negotiation.
There is no checkout here. It is arranged in the same email that books the session: bill it however you already bill your people, or he will invoice you.
Nobody is signing up to anything ongoing. There is no contract, no renewal, no data-sharing agreement and no obligation to say anything good about it afterwards. If it is not useful, say so — that is a useful result too.
Choose the conversations.
For your curriculum, not ours. A facilitator working with one couple has an assessment telling them where the two people diverge, and spends the hour there. Choosing for a group of twenty, you have no such signal — so you will be tempted to pick the conversation you think your people need.
The conversation nobody suggests is usually the one worth running.
Founder, 2026-08-07, verbatim.
Nothing chosen yet.
Three or four is a term’s worth. Which ones you tick is not saved and not measured — no account, no cookie, and this list is held back from the site’s analytics on purpose. Close the tab and it is gone, which is the same promise the rehearsal makes to the people in the room.
One file, with the promises, the ground rules and the debrief written once, and the run of show repeated for each conversation you picked. Choosing nothing downloads the money one, which is the only conversation whose every word has been reviewed.
What you take away from this page.
Three things, and none of them requires an account, a reply, or a decision from us.
One. The paragraph you send your people.
Written in your voice, not ours. Send it as it is or rewrite all of it — but send something like it, because announcing the promises in advance is what turns them from a facilitator’s good intentions into something your people can hold the room to. Every clause below is checkable against an answer further up this page.
Two lines to check before you send it. If your session is being recorded, replace the last paragraph with what is actually true — who will see it and how long it is kept — and do not soften it. And the paragraph assumes first answers are collected privately and read back without names; if they are typed into a public chat instead, the sentence about nobody knowing which one was yours becomes false, so change the collection rather than the sentence.
The 3 promises the facilitator says out loud at the start are printed in full in the session kit below. This paragraph is the same promises, made in advance and in your handwriting, which is what lets one of your people hold the room to them.
Two. What is being asked of you, in full.
What he needs
- A date and a time, or two options.
- A meeting link, or say the word and John will send one.
- Roughly how many people, so the middle of the session is paced for the room you actually have.
- One named person from your organisation in the session for the whole of it. Not to help — to be the person your people already trust.
- Anything about this group that means it should be run differently. Tell him beforehand, not afterwards.
What he does not
- Your list. Registration stays with you and he never needs a copy.
- A contract, a data-sharing agreement, or a purchase order. There is nothing to buy.
- Anybody’s name, email or address. Not one.
- An endorsement, before or afterwards. If it was not useful, saying so is the more useful result.
Three. The session itself, so the next one does not need him.
A visiting facilitator for one evening is not a programme, and that is the fair objection to everything above. The whole session is written out — the promises, the line, the kinds of answer you will hear, what to say when it lands close to home, how to debrief it, and the note to send three days later. The sheet is free, unlicensed, and there is no form in front of it; the fee is for the live session only.
Pick your conversations above and the download assembles a kit for exactly those. The promises, the ground rules and the debrief are written once no matter how many you choose — that half of the session does not change with the topic.
Whoever on your staff already runs marriage prep can run the next one, and the one after that, without him ever being in the room. That is the intended end state rather than a fallback.
Read or download the session kit. Parts of it are still unconfirmed and it says so on every one of them.
Who would be in the room.
John Moelker has been a pastor in Ontario for fifteen years. In that time he has walked couples through Prepare/Enrich dozens of times in premarriage counselling.
He is not a certified counsellor and he is not a therapist. He holds one unit of Clinical Pastoral Education. Nothing here is therapy, nothing here is a clinical assessment, and he would say the same thing in person. He writes the software himself.

A rehearsal is preparation for talking to a person, never a substitute for one. If the product ever seems to be holding on to somebody it should have handed on, that is a fault — please report it as one.
