Intentional Dating
Episode description
How do you know if you're ready for intentional dating? Well, have you prayed? Do you have an accountability partner? How is your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual financial health? Have you healed from past relationships? Have you considered your children (if applicable)? In this episode, I talk about what intentional dating looks like.
Intentionally dating causes you to grow in intimacy in all areas:
- Spiritually - you are equally yoked, believing God has brought you together
- Emotionally - you share your deepest, vulnerable feelings and hopes with each other only
- Socially – you prioritize planning individual activities alone
- Intellectually - you understand and accept each other's thoughts and values and support them
- Commitment - you have an exclusive commitment by intentionally dating
- Physically - you show affection in non-sexual ways while maintaining physical boundaries
Scripture: But seek first his Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. (Matthew 6:33)
