Ep. 6 | The Christian Dating Crisis: 5 Trends We Can’t Ignore (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Tired of swiping your way to total exhaustion? You are definitely not alone. In this episode, we are taking an in-depth, honest look at Candice Mark’s article, “The Christian Dating Crisis: 5 Trends We Can’t Ignore,” to talk about why so many of us are officially opting out of the digital matchmaking treadmill. We discuss the massive comeback of meeting people the “old school” way: in person, on purpose, and through organic faith communities that already share our values. We unpack: * The Great
5 | Dating Till I Die: The Rent-a-Wife Generation (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode, we dig into Mark Theophilus’s article “Rent-a-Wife: The New Normal” and the mindset it names, church-going successful men choosing to “stay liquid” instead of actually getting married. Marriage rates have dropped 67% since 1981.

If you’re a Christian dating with purpose — not for fun, not for the next six months, but for a marriage that survives real life — this episode is for you. We break down The Equally Yoked Deck: seven questions built to expose the fault lines before they become earthquakes. Not “what’s your love language.” Real questions — the kind that force honesty about faith, money, conflict, leadership, and whether y
2 | Your Heart. Is a Liar. Stop following it. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The heart wants what it wants. You’ve heard it in songs, on podcasts, seen it memed a thousand times. Maybe you’ve even whispered it to yourself after sending that risky text. This phrase became famous when Woody Allen used it to justify leaving his decades-long partner & girlfriend, Mia Farrow, for Soon-Yi, the daughter Mia had adopted. He apparently didn’t read Pascal, who centuries earlier warned: “The heart has reasons that reason knows nothing of.” We may never do a Woody Allen. But we use
