My book: How Should a Christian Date?

Many dating books discuss who to date, but I teach you how to date. Christian dating is not a one-size-fits-all strategy. You must find what works for you. The Lord gives us boundaries to date within, but leaves it up to us and our culture to determine the specifics.

The princples I teach are Bible-based, timeless, and you can use them instantly in your search for a spouse. As a single man or woman, you’ll make better dating decisions and experience less pain in the future.

It’s also entertaining. You might even let out a giggle or snort as you read it.

The Bible doesn’t discuss dating because men and women didn’t date thousands of years ago, but this book takes the best of biblical wisdom and combines it with the relevant information from relationship experts. You’ll get a comprehensive and insightful book to help you find a date and date better.

How Should a Christian Date? is unique because I didn’t become a Christian until I was twenty-one. I pulled from these vastly different backgrounds as I outlined the topics for this project. The pain from my parent’s divorce also fueled my thought process, along with the desire for the book to be research-based and biblically sound.
