Pastor J.D. shares his thoughts on dating and courtship, as well as some helpful guidelines for appropriate displays of affection before marriage.
A glimpse inside this episode:
Courting vs. Dating

But I think we should keep dating light
Dating is a road that is leading toward marriage.
Dating is best when it is non-exclusive, non-physical, non-escalating (especially when you’re younger).
