You Need to Talk to Her Father

Mar 12, 2025    Jerry Dorris, Andrew Rudd

In this video, Pastor Jerry Dorris and Brother Andrew Rudd lay out a biblical framework for how men should pursue marriage in a way that honors God, protects women, and upholds biblical authority. They discuss why a man should begin by asking for a woman’s father’s (or pastor’s) number, rather than engaging in modern dating customs that lack accountability and wisdom.


This video challenges men to step up as biblical leaders, encourages women to embrace the protection of their fathers and pastors, and exhorts fathers and church elders to take their God-given role seriously in guarding their daughters from unqualified suitors.


Biblical marriage starts with biblical order. If you want to pursue a wife in a way that pleases Christ, this is how you do it.
