Are You Dating in a Healthy Way?
Thursday, July 13, 2023
Summary
Dr. Dharius Daniels and his wife Shamika discuss practical wisdom for healthy dating, biblical partnership, and intentional relationship building. They unpack what it truly means to be a 'helpmate'—bringing complementary gifts to a shared vision rather than being reduced to traditional domestic duties. The teaching emphasizes the importance of setting boundaries, seeking early relationship coaching, undergoing individual emotional healing, and viewing dating as an intentional process of gathering data.Themes
