Rebuilding Us: Marriage Podcast - What If We're 'Unequally Yoked' as a Couple?
Description
Have you heard of the term “unequally yoked” in relationships and marriage? So many of you have reached out asking, “Is it okay for a Christian to date or marry a non-Christian?” I’m breaking down exactly what the Bible says about being unequally yoked, and sharing real talk about how this applies to dating, marriage, and even business partnerships.
I talk about why God’s commands aren’t about restricting us, but are there for our protection and blessing. If you’re already in a "mixed" marriage, I walk you through practical, biblical encouragement on how to live out your faith and how your actions—not just your words—can influence your spouse.
You’ll also hear:
-
The true definition of “unequally yoked” and why it matters for Christian singles and couples
-
What to do if you’re a believer married to a non-believer
-
Biblical advice on “missionary dating” and why it’s rarely a good idea
-
How to use spiritual discernment (and even your common sense!) when making relationship choices
-
My personal story of how my husband Shaun and I navigated differences in our spiritual walk
-
Encouragement for the spouse who feels alone in their faith journey
Whether you’re single, dating, married, or walking alongside a loved one in this situation, this episode will help you understand the importance of honoring God with your choices and trusting Him with your relationships.
