Christ-Centered Dating - by Mark Ballenger (Paperback)

About the Book

Do you feel stuck? You tried everything, but you feel like there are no Godly men or women around? Have you been faithful to God, but you're still waiting on finding "the one"? Waiting around to find a spouse doesn't really work for a single Christian who desires to be married. In Christ-Centered Dating, Mark Ballenger challenges the popular perspective of "If I want to be married, I should just wait and glorify God" with the biblical truth that "I can glorify God through the pursuit of marriage." Practical and freeing, Christ-Centered Dating helps you reflect God's image while actively seeking to meet, date, and marry the person God has chosen. Inside, you will find answer for: why your beliefs about dating are so crucial to your spiritual life; how to meet other godly singles; what the eight phases of a healthy dating relationship should be; how to heal from past relationship wounds and idols; whether or not there is such a thing as "the one." Learn how to follow God's lead and find what (or who) is best for your life.
