As a Christian dating have you ever thought you might have more success at finding a needle in a haystack than finding your Christian mate in a modern dating world?
Especially after you have you been ghosted, love bombed, cat fished, benched, flash panned, rizz and roached.
Oh yes, there is a dating glossary for that.
I think for single Christians it is even harder as we were made to stand out and not fit into this world, so how would we ever date and relate in a modern dating world?
So as your sister, I want to do a little iron sharpening today so we are no longer setting ourselves up for failure in a failed world - identifying 19 red flags to look out for in a modern dating world.

Ever found yourself in a high-stakes game of tug-of-war with life's challenges, wondering if there's ever a truce in sight? We've all been there, especially as single moms grappling with the delicate balance of raising children, managing personal turmoil, and everything in between. In our latest heart-to-heart, we peel back the layers of what it means to navigate the emotional battlefield of single motherhood, and the transformative power of surrendering to her savior. We share candid stories, like the unforgettable standoff between a steadfast single mom and her defiant teen, illustrating the profound impact of choosing battles wisely and the strength found in 'letting Jesus win.'
Our conversation isn't just about recounting the struggles; it's about recounting the truth we find in the words in John 16:33 and Exodus 14:14. Join me as we explore the depths of what it means to relinquish control, embrace faith, and discover a peace that resonates that surpasses all understanding.

As a single have you ever wondered what in the world are we waiting for in “the single season”?
As a single, my guess is, that you are no stranger to the expression, you are in a season of waiting.
Well, how does that resonate with you? If I am honest, I don’t generally think of the word “waiting” as a feel-good word.
So my question is, if the seasons change do we change or are we just waiting for something to happen and someone to show up?
Join me for this heart-to-heart as we learn how to get out of our heads - get on with our blessed lives.

Have you ever considered how a single mom's yearning to fill the void of loneliness could lead down a path of manipulation in dating?
Today, we strip back the layers of pretense and confront these uncomfortable truths head-on. As a single mom myself, I understand the struggle is real and how manipulation doesn't lead to a love that is real.
Is that what you "really" want? Is that what you want your kids to learn?
My guess is you want something different and you want something better than anything you've had before, and yes, it is possible!
Join me as we explore how we can love our life while preparing for the love of your life.

Have you ever felt like dating as a single parent is kind of like casting a line into murky waters, hoping for a promising catch but all too often reeling in disappointment?
Do I have you on the hook?
Listen, as a single parent myself, my heart goes out to all the single parents navigating the unpredictable seas of "modern dating", especially as Valentine's Day looms on the horizon.
As your host, I'm spilling the raw and real of my journey, along with the wisdom of my faith to guide our quest for love in a broken world.
In this episode, we will delve into the significance of shared brokenness, the transformative power of grace, and the beauty of viewing potential partners through a lens of mercy like Christ has shown us.

What is the "new normal" when you become a single parent? Have you ever asked yourself that?
For me, this thought absolutely perplexes me as I find myself questioning, well what in the world does that mean?
And btw, what DOES the world consider "normal"?
What I have discovered in a not so normal world, is that normal, normally changes!!!

So as we get ready in the coming weeks to gather with friends, family, and e-v-e-n extended family, I want us to feast on this.
Better a dry crust eaten in peace than a house filled with feasting—and conflict. Proverbs 17:1 NLT
The holiday and holy season is a time meant to be filled with cheer, celebration, joy, and togetherness. However, it can also be a period of stress, anxiety, and strained relationships, especially when managing family dynamics that don’t include your immediate family. As the holidays approach, our to-do lists grow longer, our time and energy become shorter, and our patience can wear thin like our hairline. Whether dealing with relatives or co-parenting with an ex-partner, setting healthy boundaries is crucial to ensuring that the holidays remain holy, harmonious, lifted in love and laughter, and balanced emotional well-being for all beings involved.
Learn how to keep your perspective on point as it is all relative when it comes to the relatives.
