About this listen

Everyone wants to be loved - to find someone who will stick with them through all of life's ups and downs, someone who is in it for the long haul. But in a world where dating is increasingly based on split-second decisions and geared toward casual relationships rather than marriage, it's easy for single people to feel discouraged, used, or unworthy of true love and lasting affection. Reality just never seems to match up with our (often wildly unrealistic) expectations.

Jonathan "JP" Pokluda has counseled thousands of young singles through the pain and heartbreak of dating the world's way. Now he wants to dispel the myths, misconceptions, and fairy tales you've believed about dating and replace them with the truth from the One who invented marriage, created you to crave relationship, and is the very embodiment of true love. With plenty of true stories about relationships healed and love found, this practical book explains God's purposes for singleness, dating, and marriage and covers why you should date, who you should date, and how you should date. 

If you're ready to trade the world's way of dating for the way that actually works, it's time to begin dating well.

The book is written for a West audience, though the core principles can be applied to any Christian.

The narration on the parts where he says he was sleeping around, sounds very casual. I'm sure the author grieves his old life, but narrating it that casually can give a sense that it's okay.

An extremely useful book, to learn personally and to help others who are considering marriage.

The author requires you to work on talking over every "what if" statement. These are hypothetical situations. It is good to discuss a few things. But personally I'm a person who overthinks by nature. Before you realise, these "what if" situations can creep under your skin and cause unnecessary problems in the relationship.

Thank you for the wisdom, JP. Glory be to God.
