What happens when our culture of casual dating meets the real call to intentional relationships?
In this episode, Pastors Micah and Shireen tackle critical questions at the intersection of dating, attraction, and parenting. They dive into the tricky tension between physical attraction and long-term connection. Why character outlasts chemistry, how attraction can grow with time, and why dating should be more about assessing spiritual and emotional maturity than perfect compatibility.
Micah and Shireen finish this episode by offering practical advice for parents navigating trust, boundaries, and the long game of helping their kids develop discernment in relationships.
As you listen to this episode, reflect on the following questions:
Am I pursuing clarity or comfort in my dating life? Is attraction leading my decisions, or am I looking at character first? How can I ask better questions of my kids without overstepping as a parent?
