Is it possible to date with purpose, passion, and purity—especially when you're serving in ministry?

In this fiery and faith-filled episode, I sit down with pastor Cesar Delgado and Sam Tenney of Revere Church, to unpack the real, raw, and sometimes ridiculous world of dating in the church. From awkward DMs to divine delays, we’re talking about what it means to pursue love while staying rooted in your calling.

Topics we dive into:

Dating while in ministry—what’s sacred, what’s messy, and what’s misunderstood
Why values alignment isn’t just cute—it’s critical
Communication, clarity, and calling: the triple threat for intentional relationships
Boundaries that protect your heart and your holiness
The beauty of waiting, healing, and letting God lead your love story

Whether you’re single, searching, or just spiritually curious, this episode will challenge you to rethink how you date, who you date, and why your relationship with God must come first. It’s spicy, it’s soulful, and it’s straight-up necessary.

Tune in, take notes, and tag your single besties—because this one’s too good to keep to yourself.

Show your appreciation to Sam and Cesar by tagging samuel_10e, @cesar_delgado, and me @biancajuarezofficial.

Love you,
