I had the pleasure of chatting with Lisa Anderson, Director of Young Adults at Focus on the Family. As a fellow millennial, Lisa offers so much wisdom for navigating faith, relationships, and work in today's world. In our conversation, Lisa tackles big assumptions about millennials - we get into the unique pressures and expectations our generation faces. But Lisa also highlights our strengths: our versatility, willingness to work hard, and ability to pivot. We also dive into some practical dating advice. Lisa stresses the importance of community and wise counsel when looking for a spouse. She offers her top 4 must-haves in a future partner. I love her bullseye analogy here. Lisa doesn't shy away from how hard it can be for single millennials to plug into church either.
