Ep 4 | World vs. Word: Dating vs. Courting

In this episode, we’re talking about dating! Specifically dating vs. courting, the secular worldview of dating vs. the biblical worldview of dating. The world doesn’t understand what unconditional, sacrificial love looks like. Because it doesn’t know the Lord, it sells love as a big fat lie. Believe it or not, relationships are not about feelings. The Bible says in Jeremiah 17:9 “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it?” Unfortunately, what we tend to do with our dating lives is admit defeat when faced with the great mystery of relationships. We throw up our hands and hope for the best. But a healthy relationship requires intentionality both for your sake and those around you.
