Hey Friends,


We continue this week with our year-long series to live healthily and thrive in your life. Today, we are talking all about your relational health. 


If you are dating - are you not attracting the right people? Are you wondering about pursuing dating in a godly way? Then, friends, this episode is for you. Also, if you are married, there are some great nuggets of wisdom. 


Today, on the show, Melissa is talking with Tovares Grey about how to date in a Godly way and his new book, Godly Dating 101. I love this episode as we get real, honest, and practical. We talk about godly dating, what to look for in a partner, things to look for in toxic relationships, and much more! 


Tovares and Safa Grey are believers, husband and wife, and parents to two. Tovares launched the Godly Dating 101 ministry in 2012 as a single individual trying to learn how and help others to date God’s way. Tovares and his wife Safa have grown the ministry to include a top-rated podcast with more than 3.5 million downloads and a new book, Godly Dating 101. They have connected millions of individuals who desire to honor Jesus in their relationships. They currently reside in Tampa, Florida.

Our relationships fail because we look to other broken people as our guides. 
If you know who you are called to be, then you know who you won't settle for. 
Why should we continue to date our spouse after marriage, and what does that look like?
