Summary
In this powerful and entertaining episode, I'm chopping it up with the wise, hilarious, and insightful Stephen Chandler—pastor of Union Church and author of "Relationship Roadmap: A Step-by-Step Direction to Finding Your Spouse." Stephen keeps it real as we dive into dating, relationships, and marriage, sharing gems that will make you laugh, think deeply, and possibly challenge how you've been moving in relationships.
Here's what we're diving into:
- What's really the point of dating? (Hint: It's deeper than you think!)
- Chemistry, compatibility, and emotional boundaries—how do we navigate all that?
- How to spot those red and green flags and why you can't afford to ignore them
- Why "test driving" relationships can set you up for trouble
- Why shared values aren't optional (and the cost of overlooking them)
Stephen's authentic mix of humor and wisdom makes this a must-watch episode—whether you're single, dating, or thinking about marriage. If you're ready for some real talk about relationships, this is for you.
Let's go to the Deep End!
