Dating in the church can feel confusing and full of unspoken rules. But what if some of the advice we’ve inherited needs to be reexamined? In this honest and timely conversation, I sit down with some members of my team to unpack Counterintuitive Dating, healthy, biblically aligned dating wisdom that challenges religious culture while honoring God’s design. Together, we explore how faith, grief, desire, boundaries, and emotional readiness intersect in dating, and why rushing the process often leads to unnecessary heartbreak.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Why church dating advice doesn’t always prepare us for real relationships
  
  
  
• Dating as a process of self-discovery, not husband-hunting
  
  
  
• Emotional readiness, healing, and grief in dating
  
  
  
• The difference between biblical wisdom and religious pressure
  
  
  
• Letting go of unrealistic standards shaped by culture and social media
