In this conversation, The Elliot’s, along with their guest, Director of The Singles Network, Kris Swiatocho, discusse the importance of purpose in the lives of singles, the challenges faced by singles ministries, and the role of the church in supporting singles. She emphasizes that one's purpose is not defined by marital status and shares insights on finding contentment in singleness. Kris also addresses common concerns among singles, such as loneliness and the desire for community, while highlighting the significance of building relationships and living an abundant life.

In this engaging conversation, Gary Elliott shares his journey as a co-founder of Redeeming the Romantic, discussing his insights on faith, relationships, and the unique perspective he brings as a single man writing about dating and romance. Most married influencers on this topic instruct from retrospection where Gary wrote and encouraged as a single man looking forward to marriage.  They discuss the pressure individuals feel to make relationships work, the importance of understanding God's timing, and how biblical stories can provide relatable lessons. The conversation emphasizes the need for endurance through faith, the creative projects inspired by divine purpose, and the significance of finding contentment in one's current state while waiting for God's promises. Ultimately, the speakers encourage listeners to focus on their relationship with Christ as the source of fulfillment and to live abundantly while waiting for their desires to be fulfilled.

In this engaging conversation, Pastor Bob Beeman shares his journey through singleness, celibacy, and the realities of relationships. He discusses the founding of Sanctuary International, his experiences in the Christian rock movement, and the importance of finding contentment in one's current relationship status. The discussion also touches on cultural perspectives on romance and the stages of relationships, providing valuable insights for singles and couples alike.

Loneliness is a liar. It acts like a fortuneteller of what may never come for you. Sometimes, we have to wait out the lies to learn the truth. Sometimes, we have to grieve the potential ending of a dream to live free and fully on our way to our dreams.Visit godoftheromantic.com to subscribe to GOTR News and Blogs.

Doing the will of God is not a militant obedience. It is aligning with His pleasure. Doing the will of God was food to Jesus. Adding to God's pleasure was a deeply satisfying delight for Jesus; therefore, it should also be our experience. Listen in on how you can experience that same delight when you wait for who only God can give into your life.Visit godoftheromantic.com to subscribe to GOTR News and Blogs.

"If I had the keys and a tank full of gas, I'd start a Friendship Revival..."

The word conviction can get a bad reputation as if it only operates to shame us into changed behavior. But what convictions operate to narrow our path into His perfect plans and purposes for us, including our romantic desires? It was God's convictions that led me into my now marriage while transforming me further into His image as we walked together.Visit godoftheromantic.com to learn more.

God loves you. Why would He not speak to you? If you think you're somehow disqualified from hearing His voice for the important decisions in your life, then revisit your salvation experience. While you were yet a sinner, separated from God, He spoke to you in a way you knew He was real, forgiving, and loving. So much so that you said yes to more than you first imagined or understood. If giving your life over to an invisible Savior was the most important decision of your life, how much more can you expect to hear Him concerning the second most "turning your life over" decision of your life?Visit godoftheromantic.com to learn more.

Is there the "one"? There can be. I discuss God's providence in romantic love and His foreknowledge of our will. He fits all things together into a plan to progressively conform us to the image of Jesus. He knew before time began where we would make choices with Him and without Him, and He preplanned His grace to meet us in both. He is the God of the "one" for all who would dare to believe it.Visit godoftheromantic.com to learn more. We are a listener funded program.

Attraction is not permission to persue if you are one waiting for God's choice in a marriage partner. Attraction is what you offer to God first to hear what He is thinking about that person and if they fit you. The potential to increase intimacy with Jesus when you take attractions to Jesus first are priceless.Stay connected with the God of the Romantic Crew, by visiting our website godoftheromantic.com, and sign up for our newsletter.We are a non-profit ministry.

Chapter 3 of Veiled Unto His Pleasure, titled Romantic, lifts the veil on our intoxication with romance. Our culture is obsessed with making earthly romances heavenly and missing the romance already in progress over their lives.If you want to stay connected with the God of the Romantic Crew, visit our website godoftheromantic.com, and sign up for our newsletter.

Ideal love. Why do you want an ideal love? Can it be because you were created for it? I say yes. In today's episode, we explore what is an ideal love, why we desire it, and how we can experience it. You are not being unrealistic in your desires. It's more likely you are simply being misdirected as to how it is meant to be experienced.

What is the providence of God? The love story, which is the book of Ruth, is a perfect display of God's providence. I discuss what "providence" is and identify 3 "veils" that lift for the people involved to see what God had been lining up for the sake of love and legacy. Additionally, I bring a revelation I received the morning of this podcast regarding one purpose of being veiled by the jealous love of God I had not seen in this way before. Take a listen and send me an email with what is changing in your relationship with God through the veiled episodes: [email protected]

Do the people who fill your daily life, seeing all your greatness, frequently think out loud, "I can't believe you're not married yet?" Are you puzzled by the length of your single status, too? Do you end up cross-examining yourself for the umpteenth time, looking for what you're doing wrong, and the Holy Spirit brings up nothing? Is it possible God has veiled you from the wrong people? Is it possible God has veiled you for the right one at the right time? Is being veiled by God even a thing? Today, we take a look at some biblical patterns of God hiding people, places, and things for His purposes.
