111. "She's Got the Wrong Guy" with Deep...

Christi Rose
About this episode

Pastor, biblical counselor, and author Deepak Reju walks us through his book on the topic of why women settle for men with major sin issues by answering the following questions: What inspired you to write a book about women “settling”? Women are sometimes accused of being too picky, but how do we know when the flaws outlined in your book are big enough to break off a relationship? What concerns would you have for a woman who is dating a “passive” man? What would a life look like being yoked to the “unteachable” man? How would you convince the woman to break off a relationship with the “commitment-phobic” man? And how would you encourage women who feel like all the good guys are taken and are disheartened by the current dating landscape?
