About this listen
It has always been tricky to navigate relationships between men and women, and Christians only make matters worse with a plethora of contradicting opinions on the righteous way to "do" Romance. Questions have been swirling around the dating issue for at least a generation, but the Church is still groping to find the right road. Followers of Christ want to be able to say, "This! This is the way God wants us to pursue romance!" but still we have mostly questions:
Do I have to stop dating once I'm a Christian? What's so bad about dinner and a movie?
Isn't dating a normal part of life and won't it mess up my kids' lives if they don't date?
What about those who gave up dating...for years...and still are not married? What are they doing wrong?
Throwing all human opinions out the window, author Sarah Smith interacts exclusively with the principles of Scripture to shine light onto the best way to Romance. Knowing that the complications of relationships touch many different groups within the Church, Sarah writes to them all:
- Single Christians
- Parents striving to teach their children
- Church leaders with a responsibility to disciple
In other words, Must Christians Kiss Dating Goodbye? is written for everyone seeking to live and lead others according to God’s idea of love.

In The Meaning of Marriage, Timothy Keller, pastor of New York's Redeemer Presbyterian Church and bestselling author of The Reason for God, uses the scriptures as his guide to show readers what God's call to marriage is, and why this is such a powerful call.

Story
How important is holiness to you? How much thought, attention, and effort do you devote to the pursuit of holiness? Is it your priority and mission to be holy? Nancy Leigh DeMoss teaches that we must make it our constant, conscious ambition to be holy. Just as an athlete sets his sight on winning an Olympic gold medal, so we as believers must focus on the pursuit of holiness. And the reward that awaits us brings a depth of joy that far outweighs a fading gold medal; it is the humble pleasure of hearing the father say, "Well done, good and faithful servant."

For the modern Christian woman living in today's sexually charged society, embracing God's design for sex and purity can often feel like an impossible pursuit. As the culture seeks to normalize things such as pornography, erotica, and casual sex, both single and married women of all ages feel immense pressure to conform. With alluring temptations constantly inviting them to join in, they might even begin to question whether God's design is truly good.

Story
As Christians, we believe that all sins are considered equal in God's eyes. Yet while evangelicals continue to decry the Big Ones--such as abortion, adultery, and violence--we often overlook more deceptive sins. It seems we have created a sliding scale where gossip, jealousy, and selfishness comfortably exist within the church. In short, some sins have simply become acceptable.

Marriages today are deteriorating at an alarming rate: As of 2003, 43.7% of custodial mothers and 56.2% of custodial fathers were either separated or divorced (US Census Bureau). One might ask, "Why do so many marriages fail?" According to pastor and teacher Tony Evans, marriages deteriorate not because we no longer get along, but because we have lost sight of the purpose and prosperity of the marriage covenant.
