Most of us approach relationships with a mix of excitement and anxiety, asking questions like: Is this the right person? Am I ready? What if it doesn't work out? In this deeply personal conversation, Ellen and Taylor strip away the polished veneer of "relationship advice" to share honest truths about their own journeys through dating, breakups, and spiritual growth.

Taylor opens up about her path from singleness through dating struggles to her current engagement, including a pivotal breakup that ultimately strengthened her relationship. Ellen reflects on her pre-Christian dating experiences and how faith transformed her understanding of marriage from a "cure for loneliness" to a divine tool for spiritual formation. Together, they explore how God uses relationships to shape us into His image.

Ellen and Taylor address big questions: How do we trust God's timing when everyone else seems to be finding love? What happens when our worth becomes tied to our relationship status? How do we recognize authentic red flags versus normal human imperfections? And perhaps most importantly, how do we cultivate relationships that genuinely reflect Christ's love?

Whether you're single and wondering if God has someone for you, dating and trying to honor God in your relationship, or married and seeking to grow, this conversation offers biblical wisdom wrapped in authentic personal experience. Grab your coffee and join us for this intimate look at how faith and love intertwine on the journey toward Christ-centered relationships.
