|
| "...My love for Christ is first. And I believe that you can only love another person
to the fullest extent if you have a passionate love for Jesus Christ...."
|
Kevin Crossan
|
| "...I like how the triangle analogy explains how we as Christian are to move closer to the person we choose to date and marry. All of the points on a triangle connect..."
|
Mike Luis
|
| "...I get a lot of weird looks, shocking outbursts, and just plain, 'oh, that's cool' expressions when I tell people I don’t date..."
|
Melissa Kelly
|
| "..The relationship you have between yourself and God is the most important, and
every other relationship should come after that..."
|
Val Crossan
|
| "...The only things bigger and better than falling in love, is knowing you don’t
need to fall in love to be happy...”
|
Joel Trevino
|
| "..I think that one of the reasons why people go from relationship to relationship
is because they keep making the wrong choice, not allowing to see what Jesus has
to say about the person who they are dating..."
|
Emily Heindricks
|
| "...Listen, bottom line, you have to be in love with God before you can truly be in
love with anyone else..."
|
Paul Weitzel
|
| "...Keep going down this road of impurity or start to wise up. Luckily I wised up
and found myself back at ground zero the very next Friday night. That was the
first time that god and I had a deep talk about where I was going and what he
wanted for me..."
|
Megan Vosburgh
|
| "...If I did date now, I would want the relationship to be totally glorifying to
God, and I do believe that a girl and a guy can date and do this..."
|
Sarah Waltz
|
"...To me, attraction has a lot to do with the inside now and the word relationship…
well it means two people drawn together by God’s will who live with His plan in
mind and respect one another and their beliefs unconditionally..."
|
Jeremiah Stone
|
| "...I am dating, like I said, because I waited for God to put the person whom He
wanted me to be with in my life, and He did. He put a wonderful girl, whom was
after God’s own heart, in my own life..."
|
Lindsay Pincin
|
| "...All the energy that I use to put in guys I put into my relationship with God.
That took my life on a complete 180. For the first time I felt complete and I
wanted to go deeper..."
|
Rob Cochran
|
| "...Temptations are many when trying not to date. I know that God will help me
through all of this..."
|
Stephanie McGrath
|
| "...Dating can be like buying shoes. You walk around the store until you see a pair
of shoes you like, try them on, and think they are perfect. Then after a while
your shoes start to get worn out you just don’t like to wear them anymore, so
you get rid of them and go get a new pair until they get old and so on, sound
weird?..."
|
Brian Stevens
|
| "...I figure, save yourself the heartache, temptation, and stress of dating until a
little later in life; unless you date the Christian way. Doing this should keep
the stresses of worldly problems out of the picture..."
|
Dana Nichol
|
| "...The thing I always say to myself when I just want to be with someone and God
tells me otherwise is that there is no rush to meet that one person waiting
specially for you- because you will have all of eternity to be with them and
then waiting a few years seems a lot more bearable..."
|
Megan Leff
|
| "...If you are supposed to be single you need to be content and if you are supposed
to be dating then you also should be content. I’m not saying that I want to be
single all my life, I do want to me my “soul mate” someday and I know it will be
wonderful when I do..."
|
Chrissy Tavel
|
| "...I believe that dating is between you and God. I feel that no one can tell you
when you’re ready to date, but I also feel that if you are truly a Christian and
love God that you shouldn’t make the commitment of dating until you are totally
consumed by God..."
|
Christine O'Connor
|
| "...I serve a faithful God that knows me inside and out. He has given me a way out
of every temptation, and He has provided for every need that I have..."
