Next Episode: Relationships: Brandon and Phoenix Johnson, Part 2

Both Brandon and Phoenix have a deep passion for laughing, experiencing adventure, and loving others well. They are practically newlyweds, having just celebrated their one year anniversary a few months before this recording. But don’t let the age of their marriage fool you - the Johnson’s are wise beyond their years and that wisdom shines through this episode.

In episode one of this two-episode recording, the Johnson’s tell of their dating experiences. Central to their healthy relationship was finding their own identity and focusing on genuinely getting to know each other. Although over 1800 miles separated them, Brandon & Phoenix got intentional and creative to ensure they knew each other well before deciding to marry.

Favorite quotes from the episode:

From Phoenix:

“God is a god of clarity.”“Our security doesn’t come from a relationship with another person. Our security comes from our identity in Christ.”“Becoming the one is what I needed to do.”“When you’re younger you’re trying to figure out who you are. When you start dating young you end up finding your identity in that other person.”

From Brandon:

“I knew from the beginning Phoenix was legit.”“I would recommend not getting to know each other through texting.”“Push off the physical and focus on getting to know the other person. If they’re the one for you you’ll have plenty of time to kiss and cuddle later.”“Dating is an art.”“Take it slow. Relax. Don’t make any commitments before dating at least a year.”
