In this episode of 'Slightly Off Script,' Bethany and Andy Needham engage in an authentic and lively discussion about the ups and downs of dating, whether single or married. Beginning humorously with the now unneeded pre-recording claps, they delve into essential topics such as the significance of community, maintaining authenticity, and balancing fun in a relationship. They reflect on their own marriage values and how these translate into healthy dating practices. Sharing personal stories of faith and relationships, the episode covers practical advice for singles looking to date and for married folks supporting their single friends. Tune in for meaningful insights, laughter, and a reminder that whether single, dating, or married, life can be 'stupid good and wicked fun.'
