Why is it hard for christians to date?  Michael Thompson and Destiny Hamilton are talking about many red flags people should look for before dating.  Christians are known for having stricter values and standards for who they want to marry and the qualifications that that person has to meet. They don’t date for fun like a lot of people. Date with a mission in mind: to get married. Whether it be for life or until death do them part or for time and all eternity, the Christians are in it for marriage.
