Navigating relationship questions can feel overwhelming, whether you are newly dating, working through a rough patch in your marriage, or helping couples as a pastor or counselor. Loveology is a free video library with short expert advice on communication, conflict, in-laws, parenting, intimacy, trust, and forgiveness.^1
The platform hosts hundreds of short videos, each just 3 to 4 minutes, from Christian counselors, psychologists, pastors, and authors, including Dr. Gary Chapman, Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott, Shaunti Feldhahn, Debra Fileta, Dr. John Townsend, Dr. Henry Cloud, Gary Thomas, Dave Ramsey, and Dr. John Delony.^1^3 Videos are organized by real-life questions people actually ask, and once you watch one, Loveology suggests another you might find helpful. Its Ask an Expert feature lets you submit your own relationship question for the experts to cover.^1
Beyond the video library, Loveology offers curated assessments, including The 5 Love Languages, Prepare/Enrich, SYMBIS, Better Love, Yada, and Ramsey Solutions' Know Yourself and Get Clear assessments.^4 It also offers themed Dive Deeper collections that gather videos, books, podcasts, and assessments around topics such as marriage.^5
Loveology began when Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott, a clinical psychologist and a marriage and family therapist, began interviewing fellow experts during the 2020 lockdowns for short answers to specific questions. It launched in spring 2022, and Leslie Parrott calls it a legacy project.^3 It is a mission-minded nonprofit and a 501(c)(3): it will never charge users, its experts donate their time, and donations keep it running.^1 The site team includes CTO Ben Elmore in Albany, New York, and Servant, a faith-tech studio, provides managed services for it.^6 Loveology also equips Marriage Champions, the counselors, coaches, mentors, and clergy on the front lines of helping couples, with a special section of practical strategies and encouragement, also free.^1
