As we continue to look at the criteria we need to consider when dating someone, Pastor Ford will remind us that God always wants us to be equally yoked in marriage. So one of the first things to consider about a person who is potentially a mate is whether or not they are a believer. God does not want us to practice missionary dating—when we date someone with the intention of helping them become a believer.
