Shepherding Your Girl Through Dating Culture as a Christian

Navigating the world of dating can feel like a whirlwind, especially when your goal is to shepherd your daughter through it with a Christ-centered approach. In this episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, co-hosts Rachael and Natalie dive deep into the complexities of modern dating culture and explore how parents can guide their daughters to honor God in their romantic relationships. 

Do phrases like “love at first sight” and “one true love” reflect Biblical truth, or are they cultural myths? Rachael and Natalie unravel these ideas, sharing personal stories and practical wisdom to help you discern how to frame discussions about love and relationships with your daughter. From the early foundations of teaching your girl her value in Christ to navigating the challenges of teen crushes and dating pressures, this episode provides essential tools for parents looking to build a firm spiritual foundation for their daughters. 

The conversation also highlights the importance of ongoing, age-appropriate dialogue. Discover why starting these conversations early—before dating becomes a reality—helps girls develop a strong identity in Christ and equips them to set healthy boundaries. As Natalie shares, fostering a consistent support system in the home can significantly lower the risk of relational harm while empowering girls to make wise, God-honoring choices. 

This episode isn’t about prescribing a one-size-fits-all approach but offering grace-filled encouragement for whatever season your family is in. Whether your daughter is years away from dating or already navigating those waters, this discussion reminds us that prayer, patience, and trust in God’s perfect plan are key. 

Join us as we explore how to shepherd our girls through the ever-changing landscape of dating culture while keeping their hearts rooted in the unchanging love of Christ. Don’t miss this empowering and faith-filled episode!
