When it comes to dating, relationships, and marriage, it can feel that we are often left with more questions than answers. Why do we marry? Who should I marry? How do I know when they are “the one?” How do we date? When do we break-up? How can I be content in singleness? As Christians, it is vital that we trust in Scripture as the lamp to our feet and the light to our path, listening to God and his Word rather than listening to what the culture and the world around us has to say about relationships. In this Series, we will answer what, why, how, and who to date as followers of Jesus in our culture and context.
This week, our Young Adults Pastor, Brent Cummings, and Young Adults Women’s Pastor, Kenzie Dowdy, continue our series by walking through Colossians 3:5-19 and highlighting the characteristics that mark the new life that we live in Christ as born-again believers. In light of dating and marriage, Brent and Kenzie also note a few key “red flags” and “green lights” to look for in someone before you pursue a dating relationship. To pursue a relationship that honors God and has the end goal of a biblical marriage, we must know what to look for and look out for. Brent and Kenzie highlight a few spiritual, relational, and character red flags and green lights that are informed by Scripture to help us navigate the complexities of dating in a way that glorifies God.
