Stop Dating Like a Pagan: What God Actually Requires

Segment 1 • Don’t date to just find the right “vibes”… there are actual things that you should be looking for, as a believer, if you are dating. • The Bible doesn’t speak directly to our experience of dating, but does direct us how to find a mate. • Want a marriage that lasts? Start asking better questions of a prospective spouse now. Segment 2 • Date for more than meets the eye: looks fade and even personalities can change • If he won’t lead now, don’t assume he magically will later. • Beware of dating when you are vulnerable - you won’t be in the right frame of mind to make big decisions Segment 3 • Todd reviews a book on assurance: “Resting In Sovereign Grace” by pastor Joshua Banks. • You’re not saved because of your performance, but because of Christ’s performance on your behalf. • No Christian has ever been saved by the strength of their faith, but by the object that they place their faith in: Christ. Segment 4 • Todd reviews Nate Pickowicz’s book, “Overcoming the Darkness” • Sometimes our emotional lows are more than just a bad day, and we need to be aware of prolonged seasons of emotional darkness. • There are real causes of spiritual depression that can be discovered and addressed. ___ Thanks for listening!
