    Masturbation is not harmless — it’s a hindrance.

    Send us a text Let’s talk about it. 👇🏾 Masturbation is one of those hidden battles the church doesn’t always address  but silence has kept too many believers bound. As Kingdom citizens, we’re not called to live by culture… we’re called to live by covenant. Purity isn’t just about what you do in public  it’s about what you practice in private. God is after your heart, your habits, and your holiness. The truth? Self-pleasure is a counterfeit comfort. It feeds the flesh, but it starves the spirit. You were never meant to find fulfillment in secrecy, you were created for intimacy with God. Don’t let shame keep you silent. Freedom is possible. Holiness is still the standard. 💎 Support the show

    Breaking Free from Christian Situationships: Reclaiming Your Worth

    Send us a text Have you ever found yourself stuck in a relationship without labels, boundaries, or clear intentions? That undefined gray area where you're more than friends but less than committed partners? In this powerful episode, we tackle the dangerous world of "situationships" in Christian dating and why they're holding you back from God's best. We're celebrating a major milestone—over 10,000 podcast subscribers!—and announcing our upcoming Christian Dating Talk tours kicking off in Virginia, with future stops in Huntsville and Nashville. This is your chance to get personalized dating advice and connect with like-minded believers. The heart of this episode addresses why undefined relationships are spiritual poison. When we accept ambiguity instead of clarity, we're not just risking heartbreak—we're revealing a deeper issue: a lack of trust in God's provision. "A lot of times you're holding onto these relationships because you don't believe that God is good and the Lord can send you somebody who will be there for you." I challenge you to recognize your worth and stop allowing people to string you along. If someone truly values you, they won't leave you guessing about where you stand. As I plainly state, "If a man really wants you, he will move a mountain to have you." The same goes for women interested in men—true interest doesn't play games. Ready to break free from relationship limbo? I offer practical steps: define the relationship or end it, seek counsel from church leaders, consider therapy to understand your patterns, and most importantly, reconnect with your identity in Christ. You are "beautifully and wonderfully made," and it's time your relationships reflect that truth. What relationship patterns are you accepting that fall short of God's design? Share your thoughts or questions with me on Instagram @FayeMarillion or @ChristianDaneTalkPod. Your breakthrough begins with recognizing your worth! Support the show

    Finding "The One": Peace Over Pressure

    Send us a text Dating with purpose requires discernment to recognize if someone is truly God's choice for your life. We explore three essential markers to help Christian singles navigate this challenging question without confusion or anxiety. • Peace over pressure: God's will doesn't come wrapped in constant anxiety • Alignment in faith, values and mission is more important than physical attraction • Beware of hiding parts of your spiritual journey to accommodate a partner • Community confirmation helps you see what love goggles might blind you to • Dating in isolation breeds deception and vulnerability to the enemy • The question isn't "Have I found the one?" but "Am I becoming who God called me to be?" • Marriage is a covenant choice, not a magical fairy tale discovery • We date to mate, not to play or mishandle God's people Join us in the Date Different community and learn how to date God's way.

    Is It God or Just a Vibe?

    Send us a text Join Date Different Community Order Your Copy of Christian Dating Talk Today!  Dating with discernment means questioning whether a connection is truly from God or merely a vibe based on chemistry and emotions. Kingdom-minded singles must prioritize confirmation over feelings to avoid counterfeit relationships. • Not every connection is a covenant—some are just temporary vibes • Christians must ask whether a potential partner pushes them closer to God or into compromise • Seek legitimate confirmation rather than manufacturing signs to justify what you want • Look for fruit, not just feelings, when evaluating a potential relationship • Avoid emotional fornication by setting proper boundaries with time, touch, and talk • Stop looking for perfection in a partner—Jesus is already married to the church • We attract what we are and what we tolerate in relationship dynamics • Healing personal voids is essential before pursuing Kingdom marriage Join our Date Different community to connect with like-minded singles committed to dating God's way.

    How to Transition from Dating to Fiancé — God’s Way

    Send us a text JOIN THE COMMUNITY GRAB YOUR COPY: 10 Reasons Why I Hate Christian Dating Ready to make the leap from dating to engagement? This eye-opening conversation tackles the sacred transition that many believers rush through without proper preparation. As someone who's counseled countless kingdom couples, I'm pulling back the curtain on what no one tells you about engagement – it's not just about planning a wedding, it's about preparing for covenant. Discover why your engagement shouldn't be a "trial marriage" and why that mindset leads so many couples to compromise their boundaries. I share my own transparent journey, including the surprising truth about when I truly knew my husband was "the one." (Hint: it wasn't during the dating or even engagement phase!) Kingdom marriages require more than compatibility and chemistry – they demand spiritual alignment, clear communication around expectations, and a shared mission. We explore the critical conversations you need to have before saying "I do" about family dynamics, finances, gender roles, and spiritual leadership. For women wondering about biblical submission and men questioning what godly leadership truly entails, this episode provides practical wisdom without sugarcoating the challenges. Whether you're currently engaged, approaching that season, or simply want to prepare well for your future spouse, this conversation will equip you with the spiritual tools to build a marriage that stands against the gates of hell. Don't settle for just another "cute marriage" – learn how to create a covenant relationship with kingdom purpose at its center. Ready for a relationship that glorifies God and fulfills His purpose? Join me for this crucial conversation about how to make the holy transition from dating to "I do" with wisdom, discernment, and divine guidance. Support the show
