Clearly with Jimmy & Kelly Needham

Five Principles of Dating


Listen Later

"Describe your perfect date: I would have to say April 25th, because it's not too hot, not too cold, all you need is a light jacket." IYKYK. Seriously though, if you're looking for wisdom on how to navigate your dating life, join us today for a deep dive into God's Word!


The Short Story: Dating is relational public transportation. You get on it to arrive at a destination. Aka, you date to get married. Not stay on the dating train forever. 🚂


We’re not saying you must marry the person you’re dating. But if you can’t see yourself marrying your date, then it’s time to move on. Break-ups can bring glory to God too!


Today, we’re giving you 🖐️ ways to date with God at the center!

  1. Date with purpose.
  2. Date with clarity.
  3. Date with priority.
  4. Date with purity.
  5. Date in community.
