On this episode of the iDisciple Podcast, iDisciple CEO David Henriksen is joined by Ben Stuart, lead pastor of Passion City Church’s new Washington D.C. Campus. Ben will be walking us through some of the timeless relationship advice in his new book, Single Dating Engaged Married: Navigating Life and Love in the Modern Age, and sharing with us some of the inspirations for the book from his life and ministry.

Prior to launching Passion City Church Washington D.C., Ben spent over a decade working as executive director of Breakaway Ministries, a weekly bible study at Texas A&M University attended by thousands of college students. Using the wisdom he accumulated during his time ministering to college students, thorough study of the bible, and his own personal experiences, Ben crafts an invaluable guide to navigating healthy relationships, and gives us a deeper look at the eternal purposes of each phase.

We pray that David and Ben’s discussion will move you to pursue a deeper relationship with God, no matter if you’re single, dating, engaged, or married!
