Summary: This Book Is Great!
Review: Joshua does a great job of explaining how people should save there whole selves for their spouse. He also does a good job of explaining that being single is a gift from God. I recommend this book to everyone!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: EXCELLENT
Review: For those of you sick of wondering how far is too far and what God would want of you in your relationships read this! It will give you a very enlightening perspective on our warped views. And, for those of you who are scared of giving up your "rights," read it, it will make you think. I guarantee it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent for singles of any age!
Review: I read this book looking for a new perspective on Christian dating. Even though it's focus is on "young" adults, I found it refreshingly relevant to someone like myself who is 40 and divorced! I wish this book had been around when I was a teenager.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: You CAN teach an old dog new tricks!
Review: I'm 50+ and read this book before passing it on to some young singles who I thought could benefit from it. After 2 failed marriages and countless failed relationships, I knew there was a problem, but I thought it was me. I was so blessed and so healed to find out it wasn't me, it was this process we practice, called dating. Needless to say, I am recommending this book to all age groups who have been hurt by relationships...I guess that includes everyone.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Revolutionary Concept
Review: Just when you thought every Gen-Xer was too hormone-controlled to think straight. Just when you thought that every young man's goal was to "get chicks." What a great piece of work from a great person! This book defies modern culture, both in and out of the church. You will thoroughly enjoy his wit, charm, and seriousness for God. This book will give you a purpose in your romantic life. Young men, while willing to marry, should not spend their every waking moment "on the prowl." Rather, they should use their single years to develop godly traits that they can carry into marriage. This book wil challenge your motives in dating cause you to examine your purpose in life. Praise God for such refreshing insight from a Gen-Xer.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great book by a young man who re-discovered his true purpose
Review: Yes! Could this be coming from America? A society that has become so permissible that all unimaginable things are being legalised? This was my thought when I first read the review on the CBN webpage. We all need to Kiss dating goodbye until we first understand what dating is all about, it's purpose and focus. After reading the book, I was short of words to describe the impact it made on me and several others that have read my copy. Joshua, you wrote from my head! Thanks for allowing God to use you. Right from the first day my copy of the book arrived, I had 13 people in my office on the waiting list. Can you beat that?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent!!! A God send in an age that really needs it.
Review: Ist - to comment on another customers review. This particular person decided to change his/her view on book burning when he/she read this particular book. Calling this book unrealistic in its approach to dating which in actuality is much more complex. To this I say yes, this book does underestimate dating. However, Josh does not base this method of dating on the "old" paradigm, instead he offers a new paradigm to be embraced. In my mind calling this unrealistic is another way of saying these standards will not work for our pragmatic, self-satisfiying, got to have it now mentality that plagues our society and unfortunately our church as well. In terms of this book being a "holier-than-thou publication", I agree it is. However, as a Child of the King I am told to be Holy as He is Holy. Josh's dating style can not be successful if we try to do it on our own strength. In order to succeed we need to rely on God through the power of the Holy Spirit. God Bless, Keep up the Good Work Josh.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Likely to begin a near-national conversation about dating
Review: While this book does not shake its finger at dating, it does shake its fingers at dating as we (the general public) know it.

Harris' point is to shift the focus from ourselves and our pusuit of the opposite sex to the pursuit of a meaningful life beyond dating all the while growing and maturing without playing the dating game.

Harris practically and undogmatically presents the good alternative to what is offered on the current market. Because it does come from a Christian's perspective, its views of a meaningful life and lifestyle apart from dating will conflict with the genearl public's view. Take care not to be judgemental of it, because it isn't judgemental of you.

"I Kissed Dating Goodbye" is excellent and spiritually-challenging reading, but I have been blessed by it and I don't doubt that you will be either.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: I don't endorse book burning, but I'll make an exception
Review: I'm suprised to see so many positive reviews on this book, because it has got to be the single worst book I have ever had the misfortune to read. The author's approach doesn't work because to go his route means that you must deny yourself the EXPERIENCE of dating. You can't expect to marry the first person you date. Dating gives you an opportunity to learn about the social aspects of life. What you learn from one relationship, you apply to the next. And eventually you will have grown enough to commit to a true relationship.

It's so easy to jump onto Harris' hype driven God-Train and mentally fall into line with what he says. But the reality of dating is much different and much more complex in practice than Harris would like you to believe.

I advise everyone to avoid reading this holier-than-thou publication. This tripe isn't worth the paper it is printed on.
