0:00.0	Hey my friends and welcome to week two of our brand new mini series which is all about
0:05.6	navigating the beginning stages of dating. I'm your host Kate Worman and last
0:10.5	week our episode was all about finding a guideline for stage one dating,
0:14.4	which is really my term for just the first few dates in the dating process.
0:18.4	I talked about having a brand new mindset to see dating in a new way which includes taking the pressure off of the
0:25.0	situation big time.
0:26.9	As Christians we can be super awkward about this and we do not need to know if we're going to

0:42.1	dating to really help you enjoy the process
