Ladies, Tips for Dating

Michael and Wade walk through Katy Faust's "11 Steps for Young Ladies on Dating," practical counsel that grandmothers once passed down and that churches today are often afraid to say. They discuss expectations, appearance, realistic standards, putting yourself where godly men are, and why the spark many women wait for is better understood as the fruit of a Christian marriage than a prerequisite for one.
