Dating as a Christian can get confusing fast. How physical is too physical? Should Christians use dating apps? Is casual dating okay? What red flags should you look for? And how do you know if someone is actually a godly person to pursue marriage with?

In this episode of Call Him Father, Micah and Pastor Taylor talk through Christian dating, purity, boundaries, red flags, green flags, and what to look for in a future husband or wife.

They discuss why dating should be intentional, why sexual purity matters, how to set practical boundaries, whether Christians should kiss before marriage, what to do if you are living together before marriage, and why Christians should not date someone they are not willing to seriously consider for marriage.

They also talk about Christian dating apps, short engagements, casual dating, attraction, physical appearance, cohabitation, spiritual leadership, complementarianism, accountability, godly community, and how to tell whether someone’s character is actually leading you toward Jesus.

If you are single, dating, engaged, or hoping to get married one day, this episode is packed with practical wisdom for following Jesus in relationships.

In this episode of Call Him Father, Micah and Pastor Taylor talk through one of the heaviest questions Christians ask: if a Christian commits suicide, do they go to heaven?

They discuss whether suicide is the unforgivable sin, what the Bible says about blasphemy of the Holy Spirit, how Christians should think about salvation, and why someone’s final moment does not erase the finished work of Christ if they truly belong to Him.

Micah also shares part of his own story of walking through suicidal thoughts, self-harm, depression, and the importance of inviting trusted people into the pain instead of staying isolated.

The conversation also covers spiritual warfare, demonic oppression, mental health, habitual sexual sin, true repentance, assurance of salvation, Catholicism, Protestantism, communion, and what it means to take the Lord’s Supper seriously.

In this episode of Call Him Father, Micah and Pastor Taylor talk about Bible translations, alcohol, drunkenness, communion, and the story of Judas.

They start with a lighter conversation about the Bible app, paper Bibles, Bible translations, and why Taylor generally recommends translations like the ESV and NIV while warning against weaker paraphrases and unreliable translations.

From there, they ask whether Jesus drank wine, what the Bible actually says about alcohol, and where Christians should draw the line between drinking and drunkenness. They discuss personal conscience, wisdom, addiction history, caring for your body as a temple, and why the Bible condemns drunkenness without creating rules God did not make.

The conversation then moves into communion and why the Lord’s Supper should be approached with reverence. Taylor explains why communion is not just a casual religious ritual, why unbelievers should not feel embarrassed staying seated, and why Christians should examine their hearts before coming to the table.

Finally, they talk about Judas, whether he went to heaven or hell, what his betrayal reveals about sin, money, false discipleship, and the difference between Judas and Peter. Both betrayed Jesus, but Peter returned to Christ and received grace, while Judas did not.

How should Christians handle thirst traps, lust, and temptation online?

In this episode of Call Him Father, Micah and Pastor Taylor talk about modesty, social media, lust, pornography, and how young Christians should respond to sexual temptation in a hypersexualized online world.

They discuss what the Bible says about modesty, why attention and validation can become addictive, how social media algorithms work against purity, and why both men and women are called to honor God with how they present themselves.

They also get practical about what to do when thirst traps show up in your feed, why unfollowing or blocking accounts can be a wise step, how young men can build real guardrails against lust, and why “premeditated sin” often starts with small compromises that seem harmless at first.

The conversation also touches on joy and happiness, asking whether God actually wants Christians to be happy and why the gospel should produce real joy in the life of a believer.
