THE BEST DATING MANUAL!!!☺☺☺
This book is the best dating manual I ever had! Dr. Myles Munroe books prepares believers for the real life of dating. One of my favorite lessons that I learned was the dangers of dating. Don't let that phrase scare you! That phrase prepares us not to go on a date with the appearance in mind to the point of messing up sexually. We are taught God's principles in this book for dating and marriage. I also love that this book teaches us to love ourselves. I am a middle-aged woman who has been on many dates and I have learned 30 things so far that I never knew before and that is only in chapter 1. I haven't even gotten to chapter 2 yet. Here is a sneak peek what's inside the book! Enjoy!
I Agree to Disagree With the Great One!
I agree with Myles that God don't have one special person for you but I disagree that God don't bring your mate to you because I had spoken with hundred of couples who said either God showed or told them who their mate was and believe me Dr. Munroe wife Ruth was surly from God and I am sure he pray for her long before she came into his life to make it even greater than it was.
Not just an average eye opener
This book was a short read that I found extremely interesting and necessary. I was in disbelief with some of the information the Dr. Monroe has given us in this book. Yes it all comes from the bible but he explains it in his own words and he gives the information in such a way that the light bulb turns. The wheels in my head began to turn and of course "if I knew then what I know no now" it would have saved me and my ex a world of heartache. Even if you are in a relationship I strongly suggest that you read this book.
This book provides the tools for deep conversation about dating and abstinence
I love this book. It is the expression of my thoughts on dating. I'm the mother of a teenage boy and it is extremely important to me that he sets boundaries early in life, that he respect himself and not see girls/women only as sexual entities. This book provides the tools for deep conversation about dating and abstinence. I will refer back to this book many time a year and for many years to come as a reminder for him.
Best book to read before before talking about mariage.
I just love this book and all other books written by Dr. Myles Munroe. His book educated me a lot about relationships, life, goals or purpose. He has done a great job. This specific book taught me a lot about mariage. Everybody wants to get married. But some people don't learn about the golden rules. God is the foundation of a mariage. May God continue to bless his kids and may them continue to follow their parents steps. ♥️♥️🙏🙏
Singles must have book for dating!
This book is like the "bible" for singless! I almost highlighted every line. He speaks the truth and his points are clear and scriptural. I like that its like a guide and teaches how to properly date. Its not putting down the fact we want to date as singles, but he show us how to properly prioritize our prospectives about dating.
Read it.....and then reread it.
I bought this book many months ago and read it in two weeks. It was good and useful but I wasn't smart enough to really use and follow the main points mentioned in this book, such as, "putting God first," walking the "friendship ladder," and "what to look for in a partner." Starting last week, I was hoping to reread some of the books I bought regarding friendship and Christian dating...and my eyes kept starring at this book, so I picked it up and read it (again), but now, everything fall into place and makes total, complete sense. Folks, to save your time, money and energy, I highly recommend you get this book and the two books below. If money is the issue, save up as much as you can just to get this book alone. Read it and reread it along with your regular daily devotion with God, because the truth is, every marriage should be based on a strong relationship and every strong relationship should derived from strong friendship. To build each step by step well, it takes time and patience, but is possible, especially with the help of God and Holy Spirit. The best part about this book is that all the necessary information is packed in only 140 pages: 96(dating) 44 (engagement)!! Many of you can read that in one day, especially when you're used to reading college textbooks. Also this book is a guideline to marriage. Although Dr. Munroe doesn't teach life after marriage, this book leads the readers to a successful marriage. It is made in the order from, preparing to date, finding the right person as well as know what to look for, then onto building friendships and lastly, engagement. Let me warn everyone not to speed up a friendship or relationship because knowing your "significant other" takes great amount of time. Just like you can't lose wight overnight or know God overnight, nor should you try to know your partner overnight. In my scenario, the biggest mistake I've made was going too far with a girl before knowing who she was on the inside. The friendship wasn't developed maturely or long enough and now I've caused a wound in her heart and wasted my own time & money, whereas I could have found the right person elsewhere. Anyways, I hope none of you go through my phase. I wish all of you the best of luck! Other books that really helps with dating/relationships are: The 10 Commandments of Dating by Ben Young & Samuel Adams How to Influence People and Win Friends by Dale Carnegie For Men Only (self-explanatory) by Jeff Feldhahn God's Gift to Women (my favorite for men) by Eric Ludy
....Of all the experiences that human beings have between birth and death, nothing is more stressful than getting married. Marriage injects more stress into life than having a baby or experiencing the death of a loved one....."Dr. Myles Munroe"
.....so many years spent in school....learning math, physics, digital signal processing....preparing for a professional career....but nothing concrete on the most stressfull "career" that is.... ....this book gives a deep insight into relationships..... doesnt guarantee success or failure..thats up to you...its just power illustration and a roadmap of how relatiomships should be from a biblical perspective.....and yea... it will probably dissuade you from marriage ....
Great read and great insight
Great read and really great insight into what most people in this day and age would call "old fashioned". I am a bit of an old soul so after reading through it, something should definitely be said about the need for some good "old fashioned" guidelines and advices that, in my eyes, should help most couples succeed as they navigate through dating, engagement and marriage in this generation or the next. Would definitely recommend, even for non-christians.
Want to know when you're ready to date? Get this book!
This book really placed concepts that I had known into a better perspective. God's thoughts on engagement really had an impact on me. I would recommend this book to all those who are single and who are in a relationship that's heading to engagement and ultimately marriage. I wish I had this book when I started my dating life, I could have avoided some unnecessary decisions if I had the knowledge contained in it.
