Episode Title: How to Stand Strong on Standards When Dating (Part 1)
Guest: Dr. Quia
Questions We Address and Answer:
- Do the majority of women know the importance of having standards when dating?
- Why do some women struggle with setting the right standards?
Key Lessons and Takeaways:
- Why women must have a clear set of dating standards.
- The danger of developing standards from the wrong sources.
- The importance of knowing who we are before dating.
- How to develop the right dating standards.
- Why the Bible should be the source of our standards.
Experience:
- Dr. Quia explains how her standards used to be based on the world’s standards rather than God’s Word.
Scriptures:
- “Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; 20 you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.” – 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 (NIV)
- “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” – Matthew 26:41 (NIV)
Hold Yourself Accountable:
- If you don’t have standards or the right standards…develop them!
Apply the Kingdom Principle:
- “Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: 25 and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.26 “But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: 27 and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall.” – Matthew 7:24-27 (NKJV)
Take Action Now:
- Read the Bible and a book sharing biblical dating standards.
- Write down your standards.
- Stand strong on them and don’t compromise your standards for anyone.
