Safely Navigating the Dating Minefield Hurt feelings, unmet expectations, dashed hopes, misplaced trust - these are just some of the potential time bombs that explode in dating relationships leaving a trail of broken hearts. Does it have to be this way? Do you have to stop dating to protect yourself and others from deep hurt? As a pastor of a large congregation and former singles pastor, author Chuck Milian has seen firsthand the broken relationships that occur when men and women don't move with proactive care in and through their dating relationships. With pastoral wisdom and insight, Milian educates readers about defining expectations before they start dating, and he outlines a specific five-step dating plan that will help limit relational damage as they look for someone to share their lives with. The author encourages, challenges, and instructs believers in this comprehensive how-to-date handbook. He gives practical advice on wisely forming relationships with the opposite sex while still having fun, avoiding unnecessary hurts, making lifelong friends, and knowing "where they are" each step of the way. Filled with personal reflections and insights, singles will take a look back at their past relational mishaps and move forward into a biblically healthy and romantically fulfilling relationship as God intended it to be. This book remedies and reduces the casualties of the current dating minefield where hearts get broken daily and sometimes never recover. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

The author encourages Christian women to consider arranging "dates" with a man they like, this is a shame as it just encourages men to be lazy and starts to reverse the traditional Biblical roles.
But by far the worst suggestion, is that whilst someone is "dating" a person at level 2 (physical contact) they can also pursue several other people at level 1 (group setting.) I can almost guarantee that no women would sign up to that...it just encourages "Christian" men to think it is acceptable to "play the field" and go around making eyes/being over friendly with many girls as they selfishly pursue their own agenda. There are enough guys doing this already without a Pastors endorsement and of course people (most likely the girls) will get hurt if guys behave like this. Just because they are upfront and honest about it doesn't make it acceptable; honestly how many women want to date a guy who is also dating other people regardless of the "level"....why not one at a time and if it doesn't work out then consider someone else.
Maybe this method worked for the author but I doubt it will be particularly helpful for many others. Quite disappointed as I thought this would be a good read. Interesting that the 5 star reviews are all from men .... ( )
