Modern American Dating




Modern American dating is no more than glorified divorce practice. Young people are learning how to give themselves away in exclusive, romantic, highly committed (at time sexual) relationships, only to break up and do it all over again. God never intended for His kids to live like this. And instead of stepping in and doing something, many Christian parents simply view these types of relationships as a normal and necessary part of growing up. Unless your child is wiser than Solomon, stronger than Samson, and more godly than David (all of whom sinned sexually), they are susceptible to sexual sin, and these premature relationships serve as open invitations.

  3. I am sooo happy I came upon your Blog! Beautiful and relevant in today's world.

    We push God aside and then we blame Him for the demise of our morals and the absence of virtue....

    I'll be back!
