Brothers Chris Wilde, Rick Acosta & Tom Goetz sit down and share with us about their experiences of Christ at our fireside chat.

0:00 - Intro
2:15 - (Question 1) Brother Chris, please share with us how you and your wife met.
29:06 - (Question 2) “Many millennials resent church because their parents were good at church but not good at life. They struggle attending a place that consumed their parents' time but never transformed their private life.” I saw this on twitter and could relate so much. How do you deal with this?
48:51 - (Question 3) Many of us have a background involving fornication and/or minds poisoned with pornography. How can we be healed from our skewed views and past full of baggage when approaching relationships and marriage in the church? Do we wait until our minds and hearts are healed in this area before pursuing such a relationship?
1:03:55 - (Question 4) Are casual dates prior to an official “courtship” to get to know someone appropriate? Can I just ask a sister out for coffee before asking saints what they think about it? I don’t want to get others involved and start drama unnecessarily.
1:18:24 - (Question 5) When I was living in the world, all my friends’ parents were divorced, and it seemed impossible to find the right person. When I became a Christian, it seemed as though the pool of people became even smaller. Then I came into the Lord's recovery, and that pool seemed to be even smaller. Now the brothers are telling us that we need to marry someone with the same vision. After the training (Bible school), it feels even smaller. It seems that the more steps I take in life, the harder it becomes to find someone. Are my concepts right because I don't feel like I can find anyone that matches me?
1:27:10 - (Question 6) I am new to the church and I am in a smaller locality here in Europe. I look around and I don't see many options for people my age. I'm not sure what I should do and how I should go about finding a wife.
1:39:10 - (Question 7) Sometimes, I really struggle with being single. I'm a single young adult sister that has been working after graduating college a couple years ago, and sometimes I feel like it's impossible for me to be happy unless I'm married and have kids. Any suggestions on how my soul can cope as a single sister?
1:49:01 - (Question 8) When my wife and I were courting, we tried to be open to some older brothers and sisters for fellowship. However, we ended up receiving lots of unhelpful opinions from people we really respected. We are now married, and that is behind us. What would you suggest to a couple involved in a courtship on how to avoid such an experience?
1:59:56 - (Question 9) I am a brother that wants to bear fruit, serve the Lord, and open my home, but my wife restricts so much of what we can do in the church life. It's killing me and I am becoming bitter. What can I do to take care of her and also the Lord's interests?
