I enjoyed reading this book and getting to know Sean's journey ...
I'm 31, single and dating. I didn't watch that season of the Bachelorette or Bachelor that Sean was a part of. But I heard about him and decided to start following him and Catherine on Instagram and later found out his book was coming out. I wanted to get my hands on it so I joined his street team to get early access and share my thoughts about it to my world through social media. I enjoyed reading this book and getting to know Sean's journey on the Bachelor and the start of his relationship with Catherine. I sometimes need a reminder that everything happens for a reason and to enjoy my journey through life even if I haven't figured it all out or found "the one" yet. This was that reminder. Since reading this book and the start of 2015, I promised myself I would be more aware of my decisions and to try harder to put God at the center of my life instead of anything else. If you find yourself losing hope because you are single, or you just want to really know how the...

Balanced, Biblical Approach to Dating, Marriage, and Sex
The Mingling of Souls: God's Design for Love, Marriage, Sex & Redemption - Matt Chandler with Jared C. Wilson

The scope of this book runs from the beginning to the end of a relationship. Starting with attraction, Chandler works his way through each phase of romantic relationships: attraction, dating, courtship, wedding, sex, fighting, romance, and commitment. It is a holistic look at what a Godly relationship looks like as conveyed through the Song of Solomon. Overall Chandler gives a balanced, Biblical, and practical take on dating, marriage, and beyond.

Highlights

I think one of the most helpful and needed discussions in the book was on the idea of the "one." In the chapter on marriage ("Wedding Bells") Chandler says this:

"I just see no reason to agree with the worldly romantic notion that every person has just one 'soul mate' out there waiting for him or her. In fact, I find that idea to be anticovenantal, contrary to...

Not Another Evangelical Jeramiad
David Platt's new book shows all the signs of being the latest in a long line of Evangelical Jeremiads lamenting the fall of Western civilization. It's not. Instead, it is a plea for Christians to live counter-culturally, and, in so doing, to love our neighbors.

In the introduction, Platt asks, "What if Christ in us actually compels us to counter our culture? Not to quietly sit and watch evolving cultural trends . . . but to courageously share and show our conviction through what we say and how we live, even (or especially) when these convictions contradict the popular positions of our day" (p. xiv). Platt is concerned with what he calls "selective social injustice" (p. xv). There is, he says, a hypocritical kind of political correctness in Evangelicalism causing us to counter the culture only on select issues while ignoring grave sins and injustice in other areas (pp. xiii-xv, 18).

The issues which Platt adresses cut across party lines. He takes on poverty (ch...

Not the typical relationship how-to book
Donald Miller didn't get married until his forties:

"I spent years isolated and alone, working up words to tell people who I was--or more accurately, who I wanted to be."

Scary Close tells of how Mr. Miller has begun to move from trying to impress a lot of people to developing intimacy with a few important people--co workers, friends, family, and particularly his new wife.

If this book can be described in one word, it's honesty. Mr. Miller is possibly the most honest author I've read. He reveals himself, messy contradictions and all, until even the reader feels a bit uncomfortable. But, he reminds us time and again, "Honesty is the key to intimacy...we don't have to be perfect and, moreover, we don't have to pretend to be perfect." Pretending to be perfect, he says, is the perfect way to not develop a relationship. People can't connect with perfect friends, a perfect spouse, or perfect parents. People need to be "free to be human and honest and true,...
