River City Christian is a Sacramento Christian church seeking to know Jesus better and serve the needs of the Greater Sacramento Region and beyond. We believe that the Good News of Jesus is meant for everybody, regardless of race, background, social status, religious training, experiences, failures or triumphs. We believe the Bible is God’s Word, revealing His great love for the world and His plan for how we are to live in that world.
In my life, I never got to experience love from an opposite-sex but I am grateful that I got to exerperience the love of my father and mother.
What do you mean by Love?
I have been searching for godly based guidance on dating and stumbled across this. Much needed. 🙌🏽 I too am an intimacy junkie but am trying so hard to be a chain breaker. In these times a chivalrous, God centered man is almost extinct or just unavailable. I know things will happen in Gods perfect timing but it’s good to gain fresh perspective on the dos and don’ts because in today’s society dating is all completely wonky. Thank you for this. I will be tuning in to your other videos 🙏🏼✨🌻 God bless
We have a messed up society and all these wrong perceptions about dating and relationships even in the christian community. It's good to have God teach us through you to clear stuff up
Joyce Meyer had 5 dates and was married in 3 months. And they been married over 50 years. Longer than anyone preaching the gospel. You can date forever trying to learn someone and never know them. Get married after years of dating and divorce. Trusting God is the glue to glorify God in a non ending-relationship of marriage
you don't know if her marriage is happy , no one knows what goes on behind closed doors, a lot of Christian marrieds will stay in a toxic marriages because of there faith ( especially women ) the church is more about saving the marriages then the happiness of anyone person or any 2 people in it. and could you imagine what that would do to her image if she would divorce or concede that she was in a bad marriage?
I’m back to friends first. I move like a turtle and I don’t mind being alone rather than having to “be with” anyone else who isn’t quite right or not right for me or toxic.
Thank you for the message. God bless you.
Thank you for these!!!!
You gotta trust the spirit of God when it comes to the spiritual things of God
Good message. Thank you.
Very Very well done pastor!! Everyone who is dating needs to listen to this message.
This is good! Thank you. :)

River City, How very beautiful!
Thank you for loving Uganda,
Helpful, thanks
Proverbs 18:1 says this "Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom." in the KJV and seems to be quite different to your version's meaning. It is worth dissecting and studying as well.
Many Blessings!!
I’m not gonna worry about ever dating anyone. I’m just gonna work and take care of my family till they die, and then when there’s no one left to take care of... I’ll lay down and die.
Sounds like a good idea, it's difficult to meet the right person
Bruce Courtney you watching this video says other wise ! Your intrigued ! It’s natural. God literally made us for companionship. He made Adam for eve. It’s a deep longing. I’m sorry if you have had bad experiences or wrong examples of love. But you are right. Take care of your family and yourself if you aren’t ready and with time and prayer I wholly believe god will open your heart again. Praying for you ! One day you will having a god filled relationship and I hope you remember this !
Have faith in the lord. He will find u a life partner.
I like this video I like this video I like what this pastor teaches but I will also add to this video balance you can't just trust everyone with your relationships people are very evil and there are jealous people out there who do not like to see you in love and they will tell you anything to try to divide you and your spouse because they don't have love I think the key word is be very Discerning who you get information from and keep a healthy balance off public dating and private dating and always keep the Holy Spirit In the Mix and you'll find out that you'll be in the right place
I haven’t had a physical relationship yet. So this has no emotional revelation. I’m celibate until marriage almost 15 years.
Amen❤
My spiritual mom family could not see what God was doing regarding the marriage he was given her. Most people spoke against it before they were married. His family thought she was after his money. Her family thought he wasn’t gonna be her husband because of salvation wasn’t manifested. Everyone was wrong. He turned down sex when they got engaged. They stayed celibate until marriage about six months. And his relationship with God was manifested because of they marriage. Her call in God was manifested because of him going to a church and she followed her husband.
Oh and they been married over 30 years. No infidelity
I’m really trying to be godly. I need prayers right now so I can be a better person. I’ve been distant from god and it’s shown, is God going to be clear? I need him now. I feel so dirty like I don’t deserve him or the person he’s put in my life that has nothing but good.
Will pray that God will continue to transform your heart inside out. He is more concerned with your character than your happiness. He wants your heart posture towards Him. Be confident that He will look after you and still loves you just the same. He is the Source! :)
Social media dating defines insanity
🙌🏻🙏🏻
How does one do this in quarantine, please?
Before dating you should be friends first and see if that person equally yokes you
I live sin and evil free
Sleeping with someone without God defines sin and out of the will of God
Tyler you should have something better to do than up liking comments. The man I’m gonna sleep with after marriage is gonna not only be with God. But with God’s approval
I’m spiritual and visual. There’s myths everywhere
❤️
I’ve never read it in the Holy Scriptures-just many words taught by preachers. The Lord does not mention it in his word or pull up anyone for sex before marriage. So, I say, why sweat about it? Enjoy your freedom in God.

Why did you guys turn off background play and speed change?
I haven’t had any true friends
wait so he is saying that you should not hold hands or anything like that if your not married?
No what he is saying is know your limits when dating. If you believe that you shouldn’t be having sex before marriage than be careful about the situations you put yourself in with someone you are dating. Like makeout for more than a few minutes that can lead to sex or sleeping over. Basically trying to stop temptation. That can look different for each person. Communicate with the person you are with whether abstaining from sex is something they agree with and what’s their limits and yours as far as temptation
@@jennytoscano2784 i have learned something God bless you
Jenny Toscano
You are 100% wrong. There is absolutely no sex before marriage. It’s not even a choice we have, it’s God’s law to protect us from ourselves. Stop misguiding people.
If it is intimacy you wouldn't do in front of others, consider avoiding it.
@@CanvaProfessional Nowhere in the Bible has Jesus specifically declared no sex before marriage (Corinthians is written by a man not Jesus' words). Also yes it is subjective. And not everyone can or wants to marry. But guess what? God made us sexual beings. So as long as it is in the mature context it is ok. If you cannot hold yourself back if you even hug or kiss, you have a self control issue (self control is a fruit of the spirit. learn it)
There’s gonna be something said pertaining to myths and theories. So I’m saying. Quote: Satan has nothing new or nothing true
My thoughts are Satan free
What happens when you have already messed up but want to do better
What she said☝️
Hey if youve messed up, apologize sincerely. And let them know that this isnt the way you want yalls relationship to be. Make an effort to take a few steps back and try it again.
utlie leila Valentin I would pray about why you messed up and what trauma/beliefs have you had that formed you to behave in these manners your messed un in. Pray for healing for YOU and for the person you heart. Keep watching videos like this, study the word and possible Christian counseling to have insight on behaviors you have. When you feel like your in a place where you are healthy mentally and mature for a relationship try again. Trust me the person you have heart will see the light and be drawn to you! We are human and we fail but we pick ourselves up and try better. Don’t do this person a disservice and go and try to be back with them when YOU aren’t ready and healed
Jenny Toscano I mean you don’t have to break up with the person who you mess up with.
Jenny Toscano “when you feel like you’re in a place where you are healthy mentally and mature .... the person will see your light and be drawn back to you “ What you said was really amazing. I messed up my relationship. I’ve been wanting to work on myself and putting God in the center of my life again. It’s so hard. I keep praying to God to give me another chance someday because there’s no other girl I’d want to be with. I really hope that if I see her again... she sees a different me... and God willing.... she may give me another chance and this time we would have a God centered relationship. I would love her the way God would want me to love her. But thanks for the words you wrote out...
My dating issues and the ones I see are way worse than the ones he talks about…
@@tylerlee27 I don’t even remember, but hi Tyler 😍💕
@@tylerlee27awe I’m glad you responded! I would consider myself spiritual and am close to God. Pray all the time. I live North of Austin tx and haven’t been to PA but I wanna move somewhere not so hot where I can be outside more 💕
@@tylerlee27 also that’s my Guinea pig Gimme in the picture. I don’t have kids but I want a couple on some land 💕💕

So true, and objective views are often seen as personal attacks sadly.. ⚠
God help us..! 📝

Uh wrong. If a guy doesn’t want kids, I would like to know before investment in him. I’m 27, I don’t have time or energy to waste on people who don’t want kids. It’s practical to discuss.
