getting started

for a few years, i've been reading books that have to do with dating and relationships.  many of my unmarried friends have, too. but what i've found is that there's not one single book that gives the magic formula for how to be happy and content in singleness.

as a christian, it's even more challenging.  how do we pursue a deeper relationship with God, not give in to what the rest of the world says is okay, and still hope that our future husband/wife is out there somewhere?

i'd like to see if i can find some answers. for the past year, i've been reading loads of books, watching movies/tv and asking friends their opinions... and taking notes.  i'm going to do a blogger's version of book reviews to help the process.

maybe it'll encourage you.  maybe it'll scare you.  but what i DO know is that God has responses to every opinion.

i've been asking God what He thinks of what these authors say.  and i'll report His answers in the blog, too.  after all, His is the only opinion that matters!

let's get started!

  1. you just started this today...and i found it today...and that makes me feel somewhat like a stalker...but i promise i'm not stalking you so that just leads me to believe that God wanted me to find this blog and go on this journey with you...and I've got to be real...there's not many other people I could think of wanting to make it with more than you...can't wait to see what we learn.
