Ladies, if the relationship/courtship causes your relationship with the Lord suffer or decrease in any capacity, he’s simply not fit to lead you. In marriage, scripture says a man should water his wife with the word. If you have to initiate Bible readings, devotions, worship praise time, prayers; you essentially are the spiritual leader. Pray for the right one that’s fit for you. 🙏🏻💕

I’m just going to say this for women…you rob yourself of feeling like a discovered jewel if you chase a man. I firmly believe it helps with our ability to submit to a man if we believe that he chose us…kind of like what how God said that we love him because he first loved us. Based on the trends of the current dating environment, I don’t think it’s in a woman’s best interest to try to get a man to do anything…she’ll be shouldering that responsibility for the rest of her life and that will take it’s toll.

Principle 1 (0.39) - Let the man God has for you identify himself before you invite him to pursue you
Principle 2 (2.16) - Invite him to pursue you by arousing his role as pursuer
Principle 3 (8.40) - Give him time to know your character before expecting him to fully commit
Principle 4 (11.48) - Defer to the mans preferred method of dating
Principle 5 (15.00) - Let him bless you

Thanks again for another helpful video Mark! God bless :)

I know this may Not be fair, as I haven't watched this through... However... PRAY for the Father to send you the man who wants to pursue you! Then wait to hear from the Lord...

And I LOVE your channel, btw❤😊

God's way is always the Best Way... Amen

He who finds a wife finds a good thing. The Bible also said it wasn't good for man to be alone. Man was here first and the woman was added as a helpmate. We are the prize. Women need to let their man lead and just like Mark said you'll be able to tell if he is the type of godly man that can lead you if you get to know him before you allow him to pursue u.

Amen if she likes what she sees and led by God she’ll give him some hints.

You are one teacher who is grounded and always able to breakdown such difficult topics and you make it simplified to a level anyone is able to understand such topics. I’m so grateful or I would be so lost and sad from bad experiences. Thank you Mark.

Thank you Mark! This is one of the most practically helpful sermons for me that I've ever heard! God bless from your little sister in Christ, Callie

This series is excellent. So many of us have no idea of how to conduct ourselves in a relationship or pursue a relationship and we often follow the advice of misguided individuals. Mark tactfully dissects the book of Ruth. My current relationship reflects many of the characteristics seen in the dynamics between Ruth & Boas in chapter 3. I made mistakes when I was younger because I both lacked guidance and was misguided. It’s wonderful to see how God’s word provides us with the best relationship advice available.

This teaching is fire 🔥 Praise the LORD and thank you 🙏🏼

I've heard so many different perspectives and sermons on the book of Ruth one of my favorite books but I have never seen or heard anything like this and I love it, I fully agree with it and I am so glad I watched and have now obtained practical enlightenment.

Would you consider making a video going into detail about the differences between a masculine and feminine spirit? Like what each spirit looks like when in action? Because I think a lot of people don't truly know how to tell the difference and while I have a good idea myself I definitely would be interested in learning more about what makes masculinity masculine and femininity feminine.

Thank you for speaking the truth in spite of modern younger women's ideas.

It's interesting that you mention how Boaz was aware that Ruth was only showing interest in HIM and not other men. I think this is extremely important when attracting and finding a partner. I myself, find it an EXTREME turn-off when I'm attracted to a man, and he seems very interested in me and then I find out he's behaving exactly the same way towards other women. This little piece you mention in the bible is so crucial for both sexes, any gender, any orientation. If you are interested in someone, attempt to build a careful connection with them as the focus, and DON'T flirt, ask-out, and build connections with others at the same time. I can't think of a bigger turn-off when initially meeting a potential love interest. It creates disappointment, and im not cool with it although a lot of people are, especially npw with all this online dating crap. Im not on any of those. Another point I want to make is that it is entirely possible to be both a modern sassy woman with opinions on things, but ALSO a humble, soft, spiritual lady who is gentle in her approach with showing interest in a particular man. Those traits are not mutually exclusive. I am a strong, independent, feminist ( yesi said it, liberal not radical!) yet spiritual woman, who a lot of the times likes to be soft, fragile and careful and humble. I won't use the word submissive, as it isn't right in this day and age. But i definitely am not one for "leading" id rather follow.. i wont "wear the pants" in a relationship either. I like to walk side by side with my man. I find your vids very interesting and and you have a way of keeping me enthralled despite the fact I do not identify as a "Christian Woman". I still can't stop watching your videos for some reason..I think you teach your interpretation of the bible with a lot of class and tact. Well done.

This is a really great series, Mark. Ive been looking for more insight on Ruth chapter 3 and how to interpret the laying at his feet (like if it was improper or scandalous or an act of submission) and this helped. Looking forward to the next video!
