Kingdom Dating with Pastor Charles Maris

What if waiting wasn’t wasted but the very way God builds you for a love that lasts? Pastor Charles Maris joins us to share how a heartbreaking divorce led to surrender, healing, and a whole new way of dating rooted in prayer, clarity, and kingdom purpose. He walks through the “movie clips” God used to correct his patterns, the fasting and prayer that rebuilt his heart, and the moment contentment made space for a Spirit-led match that turned four months of friendship into a confident yes.

We dig into what Christlike leadership actually looks like in a home: faithfulness you can measure, honesty that doesn’t flinch, and consistency that holds when emotions swing. Pastor Charles unpacks Biblical courtship, two people asking God separately and together if the relationship is ordained and explains how to end a mismatch without cruelty or delay. We get candid about blended families, co-parenting realities, and holiday decision traps that can fracture unity, plus practical steps to protect peace and keep the marriage centered on prayer, purpose, and presence.

If you’re single and tired, you’ll hear why singleness is a gift, not a gap. If you’re dating, you’ll learn how to set non-negotiables, spot spiritual alignment, and avoid idolizing romance. And if you’re married, you’ll find language and tools to reconnect around kingdom vision. We also highlight Pastor Charles’s resources: The Intune Husband, the Kingdom Singledom Workbook, and The True Behavior of a Kingdom Man, guides that help men tune into God and women pray with precision for the partner they desire.
