Dating is always a hot topic on college campuses, but especially here at the famously nicknamed “BYU-I Do.”
In this heartfelt episode of The Spot, hosts Grace, Camille, and Lizzy sit down with Brother Jason Hunt—a beloved BYU-Idaho professor known for his unique dating list that has helped over 27 student marriages.
Brother Hunt shares the origins of his matchmaking efforts, the heartbreak of hearing girls say they've never been asked on a date, and his mission to elevate the dating culture on campus. In addition to Brother Hunt’s advice, each host shares their personal experiences in dating along with their current dating update.
The conversation dives deep into advice for both guys and girls on how to approach dating with intention, faith, and mutual respect. Brother Hunt offers profound insights on what makes a strong marriage.
He emphasized the need to make dating more accessible and less intimidating. He does his part by evaluating the students on his list and then pairing two people together. This process removes the fear of rejection and creates a safer and more uplifting environment for first dates.
When feeling discouraged or impatient, trust in God’s timing. Relationships thrive when we focus less on what we’re getting and more on what we’re giving.
No matter the relationship status, this episode is full of wisdom, perspective and encouragement.
