Senior pastor Stephen Chandler unpacks his transformative "Relationship Roadmap" approach, challenging our modern dating culture with refreshing honesty. Stephen shares why intentionality is the missing ingredient in most failed relationships. Through vulnerable stories of his own marriage journey — from being the broke pastor who married a financially stable nurse, to learning the hard way about how his achievement-driven mindset nearly damaged his marriage — Stephen reveals why the two decisions that will define your life are what you do with God and who you choose to spend your life with. This eye-opening conversation delivers practical wisdom for anyone seeking to build a relationship that doesn't just survive but becomes the foundation for true greatness in every area of life.</p><p><a href="https://amzn.to/4i92pDr" target="_blank">Order Stephen’s book <i>Relationship Road Map: Step-by-Step Directions to Finding Your Spouse</i></a></p><p><a href="https://amzn.to/3YjS1BQ" target="_blank">Order Stephen’s book <i>Stop Waiting for Permission: Harness Your Gifts, Find Your Purpose, and Unleash Your Personal Genius</i></a></p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/stephenrchandler/" target="_blank">Stephen on Instagram</a></p><p><a href="https://x.com/pastorstephen_" target="_blank">Stephen on X</a></p><p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/stephenrchandler/" target="_blank">Stephen on Facebook</a></p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@weareunionchurch" target="_blank">Stephen on YouTube</a></p><p><a href="https://www.stephenrchandler.com/" target="_blank">Stephen’s website</a></p><p>In this episode you will learn:</p><ul><li>Why dating without marriage as your destination creates detours that delay your path to greatness and damages your heart along the way</li><li>How physical intimacy clouds judgment and prevents you from recognizing relationship red flags before it's too late</li><li>The critical difference between yellow and red flags in dating, and why your trusted community's opinion of your partner matters more than your own</li><li>Why money problems aren't necessarily relationship dealbreakers, but a partner's unwillingness to grow absolutely is</li><li>How to create the proper balance between pursuing ambitious goals and making meaningful memories in your relationship</li></ul><p>For more information go to <a href="https://www.lewishowes.com/1756" target="_blank">https://www.lewishowes.com/1756</a></p><p>For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960</p><p>More SOG episodes we think you’ll love:</p><p>Pastor Sarah Jakes Roberts – <a href="http://greatness.lnk.to/1606SC" target="_blank">greatness.lnk.to/1606SC</a></p><p>Pastor Michael Todd  – <a href="http://greatness.lnk.to/1508SC" target="_blank">greatness.lnk.to/1508SC</a></p><p>Jillian Turecki – <a href="http://greatness.lnk.to/1740SC" target="_blank">greatness.lnk.to/1740SC</a></p> <p></p><p>Get more from Lewis! </p><p><a href="https://lewishowes.com/money" target="_blank">Get my New York Times Bestselling book, <i>Make Money Easy</i>!</a></p><p><a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/1jWO57cwx0cXxHEwbfw85j?si=b570febb9a234e9f" target="_blank">Get The Greatness Mindset audiobook on Spotify</a></p><p><a href="https://greatness.lnk.to/chat" target="_blank">Text Lewis AI</a></p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/lewishowes" target="_blank">YouTube</a></p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/lewishowes/" target="_blank">Instagram</a></p><p><a href="http://lewishowes.com/" target="_blank">Website</a></p><p><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@lewis" target="_blank">Tiktok</a></p><p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/lewishowes/" target="_blank">Facebook</a></p><p><a href="https://twitter.com/LewisHowes" target="_blank">X</a></p>
