Biblical Wisdom for Romantic Relationships | The Well Podcast S3E6

In this episode of The Well podcast, Pastor Chad is back with Les to discuss how to navigate romantic relationships in a way that honors God. The Bible is full of wisdom that can be applied in various areas of our lives, including romantic relationships. When you apply the word of God to your life, it begins to dictate your relationship. Our romantic relationships are just a shadow of our greater relationship with Jesus Christ. Most people don’t know what they need to be doing to prepare for dating and marriage, but they are longing for that next phase in their lives. One of the best gifts you can give your future family is to get healthy spiritually. A stable person will create a stable family. Our culture treats romantic relationships with the mindset that you need to “try before you buy.” When we put too much stock in the physical, we get things out of balance. If you don’t determine if you’re compatible socially, relationally, and theologically, you will become disappointed by the sexual parts of your relationship. When you seek counsel and wisdom, you posture your romantic relationship in humility, and you want that heart to continue in marriage. If you want your marriage to thrive, you have to have two people who are fully surrendered and submitted to the Lord. The single most important decision you will make in your life outside of your relationship with Jesus is who you marry. While you are dating, there are a few things you need to do to prepare for marriage: Keep God as your focus. Date in community. Go through a wisdom process. Seek the Lord individually and together. Purity paves the path to marital intimacy. Following this biblical wisdom for romantic relationships will allow you to have a thriving, intimate marriage!
