Episode 84: Why ‘Sexual Purity’ Is NOT the Ultimate Goal in Dating

In this episode, I react to “What's Wrong With Christian Dating” by Tim Challies. I discuss how ‘purity’ as an ultimate goal backfires, how it is possible to be sexually ‘pure’ in a profoundly unhealthy relationship, the fact that there are greater dangers in a relationship than crossing a physical line together, and that our ultimate goal as believers in dating should be stepping into the commitment of marriage and preparing ourselves as healthy spouses.
