Wow. We can’t really believe that we’re here. In some ways, it seems like the past 6 years have absolutely flown by. In other ways, it seems like we’re limping across this finish line after all of the turmoil and upheaval of the past year. Either way, we are so, so grateful for all of you and are mindful of the Lord’s goodness in all things. We are…

If you sang that title in your head like I did… you are my people! haha This is the second to final episode and we are feeling nostalgic so this is a bit of a full-circle moment.

You guys… this week’s episode is a mess! I am just warning you!

We mentioned last week that we have been running on fumes the past couple of weeks… a lot going on personally, with work, and just all around.

We talk (and complain) a lot about how dating is a complicated and convoluted process and that you don’t want to complicate it more. But, we don’t really talk all that much about how to actually simplify the process. So, let’s do that today!By Bethany White & Dalton Teal

Do you ever feel like there’s something missing in your life and if you could just have that one thing, then your life would be better? Complete, even? It’s so easy to push aside the satisfaction and contentment we should look for from Christ and put “things” into that place instead. Sometimes it seems like God doesn’t even understand what it is th…

That is the question... Today we’re looking at lots of different scenarios along a dating timeline and discussing whether or not it’s a good idea to pray with your significant other and for your significant other in those scenarios. This is a really sensitive topic and we’re trying to do it justice, while still being clear and offering a Biblical p…

Why is it that everyone wants clarity in dating and at the same time everyone also feels like clarity is greatly lacking in dating? If everyone wants clarity, and yet no-one’s getting clarity, we have a problem on our hands, right? This week, we’re taking a look at why clarity is so important, what some of the major hindrances to it in dating, and …

Denominations can cause a lot of confusion when it comes to dating sometimes!

You guys loved it the last time we had some live swiping through dating apps on an episode, so we made an entire CouchCast out of it.

We’re back!!! Season 10 is here and we’re so excited! We’re kicking off the season taking a look at the idea of making the most of the time you’ve been given as a single person.

We've all heard it a million times... dating isn't actually in the Bible. We get it, it's not. But, what do you do instead? While the actual dating process isn't in the Bible anywhere, there is plenty within the pages of Scripture about what a man or woman who is following God should look like. There is verse after verse talking about the Sovereign…

You like him... he likes you... seems like a dream scenario, right? Should you always go for it, if that's the case? Are there ever times when you still shouldn't say anything? In this week's episode, we're looking at those times when maybe the best thing to do is just shut up and not say anything. Maybe it's not forever, it's just for right now...…

Y'all, we're calling an audible this week! This is not what we originally had on the schedule... we just recorded it this week even.

This Backstage Pass actually stems from a conversation we were having off the air that we thought would be helpful and encouraging to you guys too? Should the person you're dating be the source of your happiness? This was definitely a soapbox topic for one of us... hint: it wasn't Bethany ;)By Bethany White & Dalton Teal

There are several questions that we have gotten way more than any others and we've talked about them in previous episodes or CouchCasts, but this week, we're throwing all of them at Dalton to get a guy's perspective on some of your most burning questions! What do guys really think of girls asking them out? How can we know if a guy is interested or …

This episode comes straight from a conversation we had with one of our friends a couple of months back, talking about circling back to a previous relationship after an amicable break-up. When is it a good idea? Who should do the circling back? Why did you break-up? How did you leave it at the break-up? All questions we're diving into today!…

This is a common struggle for all of us! We seek to get our validation, worth, and joy from the people around us rather than from God, Himself. So, in a dating context if you're looking to get that from the person you're dating, or the person that you want to be going out with, how do you break that cycle?…

Whew! That title was a mouthful! This week's episode stemmed from a conversation we had about how what we all tend to look for in someone to date is really what makes dating itself so difficult! If we had a more realistic view of people, and who God created them to be, we might not be in this mess. So, this week we're taking a look at some of the t…

Oh, those early, awkward, unsure dates.... they're the worst, right? Please tell me I'm not the only one?! One thing that has made all the difference for me is know what to expect going into them.
