By the time she met her future husband, Cornelius, she was rooted in purpose and ready for the kind of relationship that honored God. Their meeting wasn’t orchestrated by striving—but by surrender.

Michael Todd was fully invested in a serious relationship and even considered marriage—until God began to reveal deep misalignment and unequally yoked foundations. It was one of the hardest decisions of his life, but he chose obedience over comfort and ended the relationship.

Today, his testimony forms the foundation of his best-selling book Relationship Goals, inspiring millions to wait for God’s best.

God honored her desires in a way that showed His wisdom, not just His willingness to bless.

Jackie Hill Perry entered the dating season with strong convictions but also past pain. Instead of rushing into a relationship, she surrounded herself with godly mentors who could speak truth into her blind spots. When red flags appeared in early interactions, she listened, prayed, and walked away.

Their marriage became a testimony to the power of godly counsel and Spirit-led dating.

Debra Fileta, a licensed Christian counselor, often tells her clients that healing must come before dating. But that truth wasn’t just clinical—it was personal.

That process wasn’t quick, but it was essential. Today, she is happily married and ministers to thousands, helping them walk the same path of wholeness before pursuing love.
