There's this guy—let's call him Chad—who texts you all the time. He seems like a nice guy, but you're not really sure where you stand with him. Chad often asks you to come over and "hang out," and you talk a lot. You know you're developing a friendship, but it's kind of fuzzy if it's something more.
Getting hurt is a part of life. The pain of the past may have you wrestling with questions like Why should I trust again? and How can I ever forgive?
My friend Heidi once said, "The difference between the wrong man and the right man is like the difference between the darkest night and the brightest day." On the journey to finding lasting love, one of the most important things I've learned is that it's important to know what you want—and don't want—in a man to date.
Ah, the excitement and anticipation of a first date! Whether you just connected on a dating website or app—and have never met—or you’ve known each other but have never dated, the prospect of a first date can be nerve-wracking for many people. It can be both exciting and scary at the same time.
If you or someone you know is doing online dating, listen up. These days it's often hard to tell the difference between the profiles of men and women who want a real romance and the ones who are "fake news" on a dating site.

The church has failed young people by defining purity too narrowly as the avoidance of sex. Truth be known, God is not pleased with any premarital intimate acts, nor the consumption of porn. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. Sean McDowell, author of Chasing Love, says that pastors and parents alike need to courageously call the next generation to the Romans 12 standard: “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.”
According to the secular culture, premarital sex is the definition of freedom. Not only is that a lie, but promiscuity leads to enslavement to one’s lust. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. Sean McDowell, author of Chasing Love, shares with Dr. Tim Clinton that true freedom is restraining your sexual impulses until marriage. Life-long commitment is God’s design for intimacy. Genesis 2:24 says, “That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh.”
