Amazingly, dating is like a lion in the jungle, where every guy likes different things about a woman. This book is a guide for women on the subject of dating and was written to empower women with their God-given spirit relating to dating. This book opens the possibility of being used in a woman's study group. When a man is looking for "the one," they know what they like and want. So to all women reading this, be yourself, love yourself, and see who you are and what you want. A woman should not change for a man. We, as women, have much more freedom in making decisions about dating. COVID-19 occurred in March. God's whisperings and my own everyday dating experiences led to this literary work. This writing body was a therapeutic writing exercise for me, which metamorphosized into a guide or handbook for others. Yes, it relates to women, but a man could easily read it and understand one woman's point of view. After all, dating is about communication and a two-way exchange. I wish I would have had this to read before dating so that I was more prepared, thinking, and ready to choose the best dating experiences. Historically, women passed on to their children, male and female, the critical details and traditions of dating through storytelling and wise anecdotes called oral tradition. The writing unfolded by the grace of God, and I am thankful. It is my sincerest hope that this book is a guide for healthy dating, and may it lead each woman into self-introspection so they can experience healthy dating. Be confident, talk to God, and share your wishes, fears, and joys too! Listen to the messages God sends you as a cue, and act according to his will for you because he wants what is best for you. God truly wants you to be happy.

All parents want their daughters to marry godly young men. But which qualities, specifically, should they be looking for? What will you say when that certain young man sits down in your living room, sweaty-palmed and tongue-tied, and asks your permission to marry your daughter? What criteria should he meet before the two of them join together for life? What He Must Be... If He Wants to Marry My Daughter outlines ten qualities parents should look for in a son-in-law, including trustworthiness, a willingness to lead his family, an understanding of his wife's role, and various spiritual leadership qualities. Author Voddie Baucham follows up on his popular book Family Driven Faith with this compelling apologetic of biblical manhood. By studying the principles outlined in his book, parents who want their daughter to marry a godly man-as well as those who want their sons to become godly men-will be well equipped to help their children look for and develop these God-honoring qualities.

The Bible has a way of shocking us. If Americans could still blush, we might blush at the words, "Rejoice in the wife of your youth, a lovely deer, a graceful doe. Let her breasts fill you at all times with delight; be intoxicated always in her love" (Proverbs 5:18-19). But, of course, sin always tries to trash God's gifts. So we can't just celebrate sex for what God made it to be; we have to fight what sin turned it into. The contributors to this unique volume encourage you to do both: celebrate and struggle. This book has something for all-men and women, married and single-from contributors like John Piper, C. J. and Carolyn Mahaney, Mark Dever, Al Mohler, Carolyn McCulley, and others.

Considering the pervasive immorality and high divorce rate of our contemporary Christian culture, we evidently need a biblically based, theologically compelling, practical understanding of sex, dating, and relationships. Pastors Gerald Hiestand and Jay Thomas counteract this problem with their paradigm-shifting view of purity and relationships—a view that challenges even the basic assumptions of evangelical subculture. Unlike most books on dating, this one cuts straight to the heart of dating relationships, asserting with confidence that the line must be drawn at "no sexual activity" whatever. Few have dared to define and apply the Bible's understanding of purity in premarital relationships to this degree, but Heistand and Thomas have done it. Furthermore, both authors are vocational pastors who communicate regularly with the target audience and have a proven ability to express biblical truth in a winsome and compelling manner. Sex, Dating, and Relationships adds a new, almost provocative voice to the conversation that, with straightforward theological insight, pleads with Christians to get serious about honoring Christ with their sexuality.
