CAUTION - ADULT ONLY CONTENT - Dating in today's world is challenging enough—but when you're committed to honoring God through the process, the landscape becomes even more complex. In this deeply personal episode, four single Christians pull back the curtain on what it's really like navigating romantic relationships while staying true to their faith.
Our roundtable discussion reveals the shocking disconnect between what people proclaim about their faith and how they behave once dinner is over. From the guy who texted about wearing lingerie before the first date even happened, to the older gentleman who casually mentioned taking "the little blue pill" midway through a meal—these stories highlight the unexpected pressures Christian singles face when seeking authentic connection.
The conversation takes a vulnerable turn as each participant shares their moments of compromise. "I thought I had to have somebody," Cody admits, reflecting on times he settled for relationships that contradicted his values. Consuela opens up about her pattern of attracting brokenness because of her own unhealed wounds: "If you are a broken person, you're going to continue to attract brokenness." Their candid admissions about cycles of physical intimacy followed by shame and repentance will resonate with anyone who's struggled to maintain boundaries.
What makes this episode truly powerful is the testimony of transformation. Each person describes reaching their breaking point—that sacred moment when they surrendered their relationship status to God and found unexpected peace. Sister Adia shares how God told her, "You've got me, you don't need anything else right now," while Consuela describes the life-changing moment when she felt God break shame off her life.
Whether you're single, dating, or mentoring someone who is, this conversation offers both comfort and wisdom. Listen as we explore how healthy relationships should mirror our relationship with Christ and discover why sometimes the most loving thing God can do is protect us from connections that would pull us away from Him.

I would love your feedback and topic suggestions!
