- Topics like attraction, desire, and relationships aren’t normally discussed at church-but they should be. Relationships matter to God, so we’re learning how to get them right during Week 1 of Modern Romance with Pastor Bianca Juarez Olthoff.
ABOUT THIS MESSAGE
Relationships are complicated, but do they have to be? How do you know if your one is "the one"? Can a book as old as the Bible help relationships today? We’re talking about being single, dating, marriage, and more in our new series, Modern Romance.

Welcome
Amen,hallelujah
Praise God
watching this with my fiancee. I literally used the "I was reading the book of numbers and dont have yours" when we first met
She would be a GREAT youth pastor. God Bless her. Hahaha the dark the berry the sweeter the juice I’m weak 😂
I thought so too, her ability to connect with the younger people shows. And her acting routine of cardi b definitely took me off guard 😅… tho Idk that I would reference that kind of artist in church, or even compare her to Solomon’s beloved. But if there were young people who understood the message better cuz of that reference then that’s all good for them
@User Name ah
As a married woman , I so much needed her message . She is so right ! Let us learn about attraction in church , not from the media ... 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
🙏
To the person reading this,God knows what you are facing & what's hurting you & all your problems.He heard your cry.He is going to deliver you. Trust in Him & have faith Amen 🙏🏽
I give my life to Jesus Christ
Praise God, His grace is enough! Congrats! 🎉 We're celebrating with you! You may wonder what is next now that you made this decision and we want to share some free resources with you to use as a guide as you find what is next for you! All you have to do is go to this link: go2.lc/ytsalvation.

I love her energy!!! And the message someone in her early 30's can relate to.
🙌Yes!!

Be Blessed!
You don't have to have a significant other to be significant! Amen to that!
I first saw Bianca at Transformation Church. She’s such a Unique and Sensational Speaker!
Yes, she is great and we are so glad to have her with us this week!
Good message! Thank you for not leaving us single people out. I feel like we are forgotten most of the time! Latinas in the house whoop whoop 🇺🇸🇲🇽 💜💜
Church prefers catering to families unfortunately.
I love seeing a latina woman preaching, Thank you so much for sharing relationships from the light of God.
🙌🙌🙌
Wooooooow, Bianca Juarez Olthoff, is truly anointed no sleeping while listening to hear teach/preach.
👏❤️!
Thx, Carmela for sharing that!

“Whoever finds God, finds life!”
I'm happy to see that this topic is being dicussed in church a lot nowadays.
Thank you!
That was the first time I ever heard her and she was amazing! It took many bad relationships and bad choices and a year of celibacy and lots of prayers to finally allow God to pick a spouse for me! To give up that control and trust God! I am now married 10 years to a wonderful man whom I call my Northstar because he is constant dependable, loving and true. Bianca is a wise woman to glean from.
Praise God!!
Great story and thanks, @smiller183 for sharing it!

That's awesome!! 🥺😍
This is so encouraging. Thank you. It's so helpful to know even if you make a mistake, it's never too late to start again.
This is great please continue this series! Because this is so true. The Church does not talk about singleness and those who desire to be in a relationship. And I'm lost as in how to choose. This is perfect timing. God's timing!🤗
😊We’re happy to know that this series has affected you positively! We thank God for leading you here!

God is working overtime with my husband...God is working through those that we love. He wasn't a believer, had no faith but has slowly found the path to walking with Jesus. I continie to praise him for pushing through those walls in my husband's heart. Our god is amazing and loves us all no matter what walk of life you lead or previously lead. He is in our house that presence is what we needed. Our lives was disastrous..now he has calmed my heart, he let me forgive and is walking hand and with me and my husband. Father God thank you for helping us find the path to your word. I continue to pray that are hearts will he filled with love, loyalty and peace. In Jesus name amen!!!!
🙏
"I just want to let everyone who's reading this, and going through a tough time know that it's going to be it.You'll get through it.
Thank you for that encouragement!
Word!!!! Amen and Amen!
Hands down the Best I have heard this topic handled
She was amazing. Such a great speaker. Really draws you into the scripture, very animated and powerful. God bless her. Amen!
Redeeming attraction!!💜💙💜💙💜💙
🙏
You might really love this. It is from Charles Spurgeon and really highlights the true meaning of Song of Songs that this message missed.
This book stands like the tree of life in the midst of the garden, and no one will ever be able to pluck its fruit and eat of it until he has been brought by Christ past the sword of the cherubim and led to rejoice in the love that has delivered him from death. Th Song of Solomon is only to be comprehended by those standing within the veil. The outer court worshippers and even those who only enter the court of the priests think the book is a strange one. But those who have learned a life of sacred fellowship with Jesus will bear witness that when they desire to express what they feel, they are compelled to borrow expressions from this matchless song. It stands in the middle of the Bible. It is the holy of holies. The central part of all.
@User Name what's wrong you threatened by Women having a voice. 🤣 Highly doubt God will condemn us for speaking His word to the world
Love her. Thankyou sis. Arpita Emmanuel Dayal. India
❤️ Thank you for your comment.
Wow I am grateful to our deeper understanding of all of the bible.
Who is Bianca juarez?🏝🏝🏜🏜
Pastor Bianca is the co-lead Pastor of The Father's House OC in California, and a great friend to Life.Church!
Love this! 🙌❤️ thank you!
I LOVE, LOVE LOVVVEEEE this Gurl! ❤
It’s amazing to listen to a these sermons, makes me feel more related in my values because so much of youth and social media finds modesty in yourself, your values, and your relationships to be old fashioned and “lame” or prudish but it’s nice to know that that’s not the case entirely.
Amen, this is so good! God Bless you!

Love it!

I liked ur message. I always heard about songs of Solomon and tried reading it but I stopped because it felt old. You give a new spin to it. Hope to see you continue this series. Please don't change how you preach am young and it takes a lot to keep me interested in sermons at times. Thank you. I appreciate you Bianca. Just a request could you look into the aspect of broken relationships and and how to keep God at the centre of the relationship
I would encourage you to watch some of Allen Parr’s series on Song of Solomon. He went in depth with it forreal.
Amen!!! Yes, God at the Center!!

Fantastic!! just what I needed to hear today. By the way when does this usually get livestreamed?
Our CZcams Lives are at 8:30, 10:00, and 11:30am CT on Sunday mornings. Hope to see you there this weekend!
Please pray for me and my study
What's going on with romance in our culture?🤯🤯🤯💟💟💟
Me too with the coffee and soaps… but Sicilian
My only nitpick with the message today was it seemed to keep leaning towards advice for strictly the women. A lot of the points should have been stated to go both ways in regards to self insecurity, respect, and etc. My girlfriend was able to get a lot out of the message but as a guy I was kinda just left with "Your words have an impact."
@Kaden Drake, we’re very appreciative of your honesty, and hear where you are coming from. We hope our next sermons will also lean both sides and that you are able to find them helpful.🙏
Have a blessed week!

(1 Peter 4:7)- “The end of the world is coming soon. Therefore, be earnest and disciplined in your prayers.
(1 Peter 4:17)- “For the time has come for judgment, and it must begin with God’s household. And if judgment begins with us, what terrible fate awaits those who have never obeyed God’s Good News?
(2 Peter 3:10)- “The day of the Lord will come as unexpectedly as a thief. Then the heavens will pass away with a terrible noise, and the very elements themselves will disappear in fire, and the earth and everything on it will be found to deserve judgment.
(2 peter 3:11)- “Since everything around us is going to be destroyed like this, what holy and godly lives you should live.”
(Ezekiel 12:23)- “tell the people, ‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says: The time has come for every prophecy to be fulfilled!’
(Ezekiel 12:25)- “For I am the LORD! If I say it, it will happen. There will be no more delays, O Rebellious House! I will fulfill my threat of destruction in your own lifetime. I, the Sovereign LORD, have spoken!”
I do agree that the Bible does define and illustrate passion for married people and that attractiin can be powerful. What is not agreeing with my spirit is the fact that these modern "speakers" are always using references , quoting ohrases, singing the lines from some of the most vulgar people , artists, musicians there is. How can someone who is not supposed to be like the world know every expression, sound , detail about so.much without actively watching participating, ir feeding off of the productions of these very people. How is this not a concern? I cant judge but Im starting to see a little of the Bibles antiguity in this modernity too. The same type of people were in the Bible as well.
We are glad you, Marvin, are here.
Thank you for sharing. We appreciate your honesty.

How come you do not end your prayers with A-men?
I'm actually bad at starting and keeping relationships
Pray everyday for help and search out those who share in your faith. Find the positive value in who you are, no matter how small it is and celebrate it and build off of it. Don't race to find the one. Race to find the truth. Not only will you be set free, but you may find the relationships you wanted before not as necessary anymore and find something or someone greater. May God help us both in our Journey. Amen.
Thank you for sharing that, Michael! I pray you are encouraged by this message.

It's hard to believe that a wholesome-romantic and sensual book called "Songs of Songs" comes from the Bible and yet the church is so stiff about the subject. Can't believe I've lost years of my life because of this stiffness.
