Nearly half of America is single today — and many would rather not be. But, as a culture, we’ve lost the plot of how dating works.
Especially for young Catholics seeking to build a lasting marriage and family, it’s hard to even know how to begin ... but there’s a film that offers answers to just that.
The Dating Project —Helping Singles in Need
The Dating Project is now streaming free on EWTN’s new on-demand digital platform EWTN+. The film combines heartfelt stories of singles — men and women, ages 18-40 — with practical, actionable strategies geared not for the rom-com world but for the real world.
Produced by Catholics, The Dating Project features the work of Catholic Boston College scholar Dr. Kerry Cronin, whose simple “Dating Assignment” has become a campus legend: ask someone out, face-to-face, for an actual date.
“The film offers viewers hope, inspiration, and tools for navigating the relationship landscape,” said The Dating Project writer/producer Megan Harrington.
“The most important documentary in recent years,” said author and relationship expert Suzanne Venker upon the film’s release.
But Wait, There's More — On YouTube
Created from unseen footage shot for the original film, Dating Decoded: Beyond The Dating Project, is a new companion series on YouTube that dives deeper into the film’s themes.
Organized by topic, the series expands the conversation originally begun in the film — and we hope you'll continue it in the comments section!
The Dating Project was produced by Paulist Productions, Mpower Pictures, in association with Family Theater Productions. The film, YouTube series, and free dating resources are available now here.
