Getting off the Relationship Escalator
In this episode, pastor Zach explores the concept of the "relationship escalator," a term coined by relationship researcher Amy Goran. Zach discusses how many people drift through relationships, moving from attraction to dating, sleeping together, living together, and marriage without intentional thought. This autopilot approach often leads to disillusionment and broken relationships. He contrasts this with God's design for relationships, which requires conscious decisions and commitment at each step. Zach encourages couples to take their time, ask important questions, and be intentional, emphasizing that following God’s plan leads to deeper, more meaningful relationships.
