In the often confusing world of Christian dating, one simple but powerful principle stands above the rest: The Golden Rule. Jesus taught it in Matthew 7:12 — “So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.” For Christian singles in 2026, this verse is more than just a nice saying. It's a complete framework for dating with integrity, clarity, and Christ-like love.

One of the most anxiety-inducing questions is: How soon should you define the relationship (DTR)?

Christian dating should not feel like a confusing guessing game where one person sends mixed signals while the other person keeps praying, hoping, and overanalyzing every text message. Of course, dating always involves some uncertainty. You are getting to know someone, discerning compatibility, and praying about whether the relationship has long-term potential. But there is a big difference between normal dating uncertainty and being led on. Being led on means someone is giving you just enough attention, affection, or spiritual-sounding […] The post Top 5 Signs You Are Being Led On in a Christian Dating Relationship appeared first on Christian Singles Advice | Christian Dating Advice Tips.

Are you confusing butterflies for a foundation? In this episode, Kirk and his son get real about one of the biggest mistakes people make in dating — chasing chemistry while ignoring compatibility. They break down why that electric feeling you get on a first date isn't enough to build a life on, what Proverbs 31 actually teaches men about choosing a partner, and why the truest test of compatibility shows up not in the highlights of a relationship, but in the hard seasons. Whether you're single, dating, or just trying to make sense of modern relationships, this one's for you.

Dating as a Christian single is about more than finding someone attractive, kind, or easy to talk to. Those things matter, but a lasting relationship also needs something deeper: shared faith values. When two people share similar faith values, they are more likely to approach life, relationships, marriage, family, forgiveness, conflict, and commitment from a similar foundation. That does not mean both people will agree on every small issue. It does mean their core beliefs point in the same direction.

Is it sinful to date a non-Christian? Whether you’re swiping on a faith-based app, meeting someone at work, or connecting through friends, the tension feels real. You like their personality, values, and chemistry—but they don’t share your faith. Is pursuing romance with them crossing a biblical line, or is it just a gray area? The short answer?

Christians from different ethnic backgrounds, countries, or cultural traditions are connecting through faith communities, online dating apps, mission trips, or shared ministries.

Many divorced men and women want companionship again, but they also feel fear, uncertainty, and sometimes even shame around dating after a marriage ends.

There are over 5,000 dating sites and apps worldwide. It's clear people are longing for connection. But in a culture that celebrates casual intimacy and moral compromise, how should a Christian approach dating? We certainly cannot follow the pattern our culture has normalized.   This week, three married staff members share how God guided their dating journeys with intention, faith, and purpose. If you desire a relationship that honors God and lays a solid foundation for marriage, this episode offers candid insights to help you navigate this hazardous terrain.   This conversation is especially meaningful for those rebuilding their lives after sexual sin.   Resources we mentioned: How to Approach Dating as a Christian (Article) By Pure Life Ministries #393 - Is Purity all that Matters in Christian Dating?

In dating, the term “closure” gets thrown around a lot. People chase that final conversation, the perfect explanation, or one last meeting to tie up loose ends after a breakup. But when you’re dating as a Christian—with the goal of pursuing marriage intentionally and honoring God—closure takes on a deeper, more spiritual meaning. Closure in a Christian dating relationship isn’t primarily about getting every question answered by your ex. It’s about reaching a place of peace, understanding, and acceptance that […] The post What Is Closure in a Christian Dating Relationship? appeared first on Christian Singles Advice | Christian Dating Advice Tips.

We're back with another episode of blind reactions to the most unhinged Christian dating stories our listeners have sent in.If you've been following this series, you already know the drill. We read the stories for the first time on the podcast and react in real time. And somehow the stories keep getting crazier.In this episode we react to stories like:The girl who asked God for a sign about a guy… and the next day he got arrestedThe guy who would only hold hands during worship songsThe date that somehow ended with a trip to the dean's office at a Christian collegeThe man who compared a girl to a 12 passenger van while explaining why he wouldn't date herThe ministry leader who used a Samson Bible verse to try to convince a girl to marry himThe relationship that came with a very intense and very prophetic future telling momThe church play that ended with someone leaving their fiancé and marrying the GrinchSome of these stories are hilarious. Some are uncomfortable. And some are genuinely cautionary tales about manipulation, immaturity, and confusing spirituality with wisdom.If you've ever wondered whether your Christian dating experience was the weirdest one out there… it probably wasn't.

As a Christian single, do you suffer from insecurity in relationships? If you suffer insecurity in your Christian dating relationship (like I used to) you probably have inner voices spewing insecure thoughts  like these about your date: “This is too good to be true, she’s bound to break up with me.” “When she finds out what I’m really like she’s gonna reject me like the others did.” “I just know my date is cheating on me.” Navigating the intricate web […] The post Insecurity in Relationships-Christian Dating appeared first on Christian Singles Advice | Christian Dating Advice Tips.

Drawing from passages in Hebrews, 1 Corinthians, 1 Peter, and 1 Timothy, he explains why the biblical standard calls believers to honor marriage by maintaining sexual purity before marriage and faithfulness within it.Ken also examines the broader cultural context of modern sexuality, arguing that society's saturation with sexual content has distorted moral boundaries and desensitized people to practices once widely understood as inappropriate. He discusses the spiritual, emotional, and psychological consequences of sexual immorality and calls the church to recover a biblical vision of holiness.The episode also addresses difficult issues such as sexual temptation, pastoral misconduct, grooming, and the responsibility of Christian leaders to maintain absolute purity. Ken emphasizes that God's commands are not meant to restrict joy but to protect people and preserve the sanctity of marriage and family.Ultimately, the message is both a warning and an invitation: believers can walk in holiness through the power of the Holy Spirit, and when failures occur, repentance and restoration are always available.Key Topics CoveredWhy the question “How far can we go?” misses the biblical pointHebrews 13:4 and honoring the marriage covenantThe biblical definition of sexual immoralityBoundaries for physical affection while datingCultural shifts in sexuality over the past 60 yearsThe spiritual and emotional consequences of sexual sinWhy the church must teach moral clarity againThe role of marriage in God's design for family and childrenGrooming and sexual misconduct in ministry leadershipHow to Engage with Orbis:- Check out Ken's book,⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ On the Road with the Holy Spirit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: https://a.co/d/0OVIIA0- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Partner with Orbis Financially⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Give - Orbis Ministries⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠- Download the app: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠App - Orbis Ministries⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-⁠⁠⁠⁠ Are you interested in learning about Holy Spirit-led ministry?

Melody and C.D. Fabien made headlines for waiting to kiss until marriage. Now more than a decade later, they're doing "dating discipleship" work with couples who feel confused about the in between, wanting to date intentionally before getting engaged. In this conversation with the Perrys, the Fabiens discuss what it means to date with godly wisdom, lead with integrity, and pursue purity that lasts beyond the wedding day. Melody and C.D. say that obedience is inconvenient but it's always worth it. They make a case for why living together before marriage is actually spoken against in the Bible, and they offer encouragement around boundaries, conviction, repentance and community. This is just part one of the conversation. Listen in and then come back next week to hear the rest. Scripture reference:Romans 62 Timothy 2:20-21Connect with the Fabiens:https://www.instagram.com/hangingwiththefabiens/https://www.instagram.com/cdfabien/https://www.instagram.com/melodyfabien/Get Dating & Marriage Coaching with the Fabienshttps://cdandmelody.comThis episode of With the Perrys is sponsored by:https://brooklynbedding.com — Get 30% off sitewide when you use code PERRY at checkout.https://gominno.com — Get your first month FREE when you use code PERRY at sign up.
