Dec 16, 2023 we met, Dec 21 first date, first kiss, and understood we were abstaining from sex until marriage, Dec 25 he introduced me to his parents and a few other family member, January 1, 2024 he asked me to be his girlfriend, Jan 14 he introduced me to his Church and invited both set of our parents out to eat so they can meet, we didn’t see each other again until February 13-16 because we are in a long distance relationship (and we fasted together for 7days before we seen each other). This man is so intentional, and every phone conversation and FaceTime is productive (using Steph and Iman’s words). When it’s is God led and both people put in GREAT EFFORT, it comes with ease even while you desire to physically touch and lay eyes on each other. Everything they are saying in this video is so true, but it will only work if it’s the person God has for you

Hey Affords 💖 I first want to say thank you both for being transparent and showing us what Godly courtship and Kingdom marriage looks like. This was a really good story time/ counseling session! I have to admit that I too was becoming closed in some areas regarding relationships. I do believe intentionality is very.important in developing a relationship. This helped me in choosing to remain open simply because I don't know where my future husband will come from. Thanks for sharing your experience and advice. Love y'all 💕

Sis and bro, thank you so much for this video! I was in a long distance relationship and it was one-sided. I bought him the gifts, sent text messages, made calls that went unanswered, planned trips to go see him, and nothing was reciprocated. I was the only one making an intentional effort to build something together. 😢I realized I was being used, and it took me getting my heart broken to walk away and know my worth. That totally crushed me and I told myself I wouldn’t do long distance ever again. I even had men in state, in the same city or town, and they still weren’t intentional. I have let the counterfeits go so the real man that God has for me can come. I’m going to be like my sis Iman, and when he comes, I’m going to be like “my man, my man, my man”! Be prepared to be sick of me 😂when he comes!!! On another note, y’all are hilarious!!! My bro Steph, got the spiritual green thumb!! 😅Steph, you went in talking about the sowing and planting. Then you were about to turn up on the “We want a harvest!” Listen, you had me rolling okkkkk!! I’m so glad that you two found each other and long distance worked out for you both. When God is in something, and He’s the foundation, things will always work out and stand for whom He has joined, let NO man put asunder! You both were intentional and it shows! You two are a beautiful couple and I can tell that you each complement and complete each other. I’m really learning a lot from you about Kingdom marriage and I thank God for the videos and counsel and advice that you give to help us who are in our waiting season. Keep these videos coming and I pray that God pours into you both double fold and more, as you continue to pour and minister to us! This is a part of your ministry by doing this and I know God is pleased! Thank you for sharing your life with us and for being that example of showing how a Godly marriage is supposed to look and feel! Love y’all! 🤎🤍

So many gems. Thank you for the transparency and sharing your journey. I was with Iman on the marrying someone in my city/state. However as I look around either he's going to have to move here or I might be moving 😂😂😂. I appreciate the details surrounding prioritization, intentionality, how feelings about each other while together and apart, and the soil analogy. I've heard it said that a man will give you money and even give you time. Yet when he'll inconvenience himself and make you part of his world then that's one way that you know you are a priority and not an option, the one and not one of many. Im looking forward to that experience.

I’m in a LDR for the first time and I truly appreciate the emotional connection we established before any physical contact. The first time we met he drove to VA from FL. We’ve kinda been taking turns flying back and forth monthly since then. I never thought I’d even entertain someone so far away. He has been very intentional so I’m glad I took a chance. Thanks for sharing your story. Love you guys!
