Summary: Good advice on dating from a Christian point of view
Review: This was the first book that I read on dating from a Christian perspective that actually gave good advice from a biblical standpoint. I agree with letting the other person know where you stand, setting your boundaries up front, using discernment and common sense, and having a life of your own and being a whole person and not expecting the other person to fulfill you or make you happy. Great book, I only regret finding this book way past the years that I initially started dating...(would have saved myself a lot of heartache, headaches, and wasting time.) This book would be good for all church-going Christians confused about how to approach dating based on a biblical foundation especially nowadays where the act of "courting" seems to be a dying art. Unfortunately some Christians fall into that trap of mimicking the world when it comes to relationships, in which most unbelievers expect to "get some" after the third or fourth date. Dating from a biblical aspect should be discussed more in churches, and especially taught more in the home by the parents.

Summary: FINALLY a book on dating
Review: What a great book. I minister to college students. Right now, I am taking my students through a study based on this book. The first week I had a spring-breaker accidentally show up not knowing the theme of what we were doing. She has commited to drive 45 minutes every week to come to this study. This material has been convicting, and I've never had so much fun on the discussion of dating. It's making a difference in my students' perspective on dating. And I cannot stress enough, IT IS ABSOLUTELY FUN.
