When it comes to dating in today’s world, there is often the expectation of immediate sexual intimacy, which leads to a chain of sexual encounters rather than a genuine, committed relationship. The difference between God’s standard for relationships and the world’s can be summed up in one word: covenant. In this episode, Seth Stradling and Seth Williams talk about embracing a life of purity before and after marriage.
QUOTES TO REMEMBER
- ”What do you do when you get married? That’s easy. You take someone who’s just as useless and horrible as you are, and then you shackle yourself to them. And then you say, we’re not running away no matter what happens.” — Jordan Peterson
- “If you’ve messed up in relationships, God is the God of new beginnings. His mercies are new this morning. Don’t beat yourself up. Go to Him and ask Him to teach you what a right relationship looks like with Him and others.” — Seth Williams
