What do you do when your dating pool feels tiny and everyone knows everyone?
Your ex is still at church. Your crush is friends with someone you dated. Everyone knows you went out before you’ve even decided if you like each other. And if it doesn’t work out, you’re probably still going to see them next Sunday.
Dating in a small Christian community can get complicated fast.
In this episode, three single Christians in their twenties get honest about what it’s actually like to date when your options feel limited and your dating life isn’t exactly private.
We’ll talk about: Whether the Christian dating pool really is too small
Why dating in a tight church community can feel so intimidating
What to do when everyone has dated everyone
Whether dating a friend’s ex should be off-limits
How to handle seeing an ex in the same community
Who should actually get a voice in your dating decisions
Whether a small dating pool makes people settle or become too picky
Why Christians keep saying “there’s no one here”
How fear of awkwardness keeps people from ever asking someone out
What to do when a date doesn’t work out but you still have to see each other
Why you shouldn’t let other people’s opinions keep you from pursuing a good relationship
A small dating pool doesn’t have to be a dead dating pool.It might just require more courage, maturity, and willingness to handle relationships with honor.
So if you’ve ever looked around your church, small town, ministry school, or friend group and thought, “There is literally no one left,” this episode is for you.

You both want to get married. But have you talked about what life together will actually look like?
Everyone gives marriage advice. Very few people tell you what they wish they would’ve known before they got married. What surprised them? What got harder than they expected? What got better? What do decades of marriage teach you that dating never could?
Everyone says, “Date God’s way.” Almost nobody tells you what that actually looks like.
Pursuit isn’t a personality trait, it’s a skill. And so is being pursued.
Do men really think about sex all the time? Are they actually less emotional than women? Does getting married make lust disappear? And what does “men are visual” even mean?
