Modern culture says love should be effortless and immediate—but Scripture shows that alignment builds the pathway where love can deepen. And while feelings can be strong, they can still lead you off course; shared faith and aligned values create the foundation where love grows with strength and stability. In this message, we contrast contract dating (conditional, short-term, performance-based) with covenant dating (clarity, character, community, compatibility, commitment), inviting believers to pursue relationships marked by spiritual maturity, wise counsel, and a clear, intentional direction toward marriage.
