About this listen
Want to clear out the noise and fuzz regarding Christian dating? Want to ensure finding the right one? Want to put God first before anything else? Christian dating has become so weird in the last couple of years, totally understandable. The world is getting worse, and finding the right partner seems like an impossible mission. There are so many misconceptions, rules, and lies that have made dating difficult for Christians when it shouldn't be hard at all. We, as believers, have to approach dating with wisdom and with the right mindset, understanding what a godly relationship should look like.
This world has lied to us in so many ways, romanticizing sin so that we have become blind to it. And when it comes to dating, there are many things that we need to be aware of so we don't fall into the devil's trap.
We have become so desperate to date someone as if that is the goal of life, forgetting what the primary goal of every believer is. Before we start dating, we have to understand the purpose of dating. Understand why God designed us in a way we need a life companion and how that brings us closer to himself.
We all need some help and guidance when it comes to dating; that's why in this audiobook, you will find:
- Steps to make sure you are ready for dating
- The major red flags to look for when dating
- Practices to put God in the center of a relationship
- The crucial boundaries for a healthy relationship
- How to protect your relationship from the world and evil
- Important things to do before considering marriage
If you want to have a healthy mindset regarding dating and ensure a godly relationship, this audiobook is ideal for you; buy it now!

Everybody knows there’s money to be made in stocks. But the reality is only a fraction of investors actually turn profits. If you’re a retail investor with no professional experience…and you don’t have access to all the “insider knowledge” and resources that institutional investors have…you’re more or less gambling your money away.

If you had bought and held unto $100 of bitcoin in 2010, you would have approximately $41,000,000 today in February 2022! Those are astronomical gains, but most people didn’t know about bitcoin at that time or understand that it's the future of money. Even today, bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies like Ethereum and binance coin sound like unintelligible concepts; concepts that only the “experts” - the computer geeks - can understand and take advantage of.

Despite being relatively unheard of, endometriosis affects an estimated one in 10 women worldwide. That's roughly 190 million people, and due to misdiagnosis, there's likely many more who are suffering without treatment. Getting a diagnosis of endometriosis can feel like a blessing and a curse. Knowing that you're not going crazy or blowing things out of proportion can be a huge relief. However, a diagnosis can also lead to feelings of isolation and discouragement - especially when you’re faced with treatment options that seem extreme. But don't despair - you aren't alone.

Relational Intelligence is your action plan for getting smart about your purpose partners. Relationships were God's idea, writes Daniels, and when we understand and apply what God has to say about them we end up avoiding unnecessary relational turmoil, advancing in all areas of our life, and accomplishing our God-given purpose. When your purpose is on the line, the cost of relational unintelligence is too great to pay. In this audiobook, you will explore and learn how to activate the relational intelligence you need for the life of purpose you want.

Boundaries are the key to a healthy relationship!
Worth the listen for anyone wanting to enhance their dating life. I like the book's openness, and although it is intended for the Christian faith, it expresses how dating is similar from all walks of life, and we should remove stigmas based on your background. Not only will it improve your dating life as a Christian but also that stress that sometimes comes with that. Worth the listen,

Beautiful audiobook!
I truly enjoyed listening to this audiobook. It is good to hear and always remember to put God in the center of our life. Sometimes we put other things first and forget that with out him we are nothing. Having a partner that shares the same beliefs and putting God first will not only bring you peace in your life but its going to make your relationship stronger. i highly recommend it to singles and couples too!

Lots of information!
Even Christians in this day and age have taken dating out of its proper perspective. This audiobook explored dating from a biblical perspective. I largely concur with the author's points made in this audiobook It espouses fundamental ideas that remain true today while providing useful advice for young adults. Every child of God should listen to this audiobook before and while they are dating. I'm incredibly grateful for the time and effort the author invested in creating this audiobook.

A great balance between romance and faith.
There are many challenges for those who want to live their lives according to biblical principles and seek a partner who wants to share those ideals. A person's faith determines every step of their daily decision-making, and choosing the wrong partner can cause a lifetime of conflict. This book has, above all else, empathy and understanding of the difficult choices a Christian person faces when it comes to dating and marriage. It's a great, common-sense guide to making choices that will not only strengthen you, but also your partner. A fantastic read for single people, but also ideal for couples to read together in order to grow and strengthen their faith and commitment to one another. Highly recommended!

A Refreshing Read
It was a pleasure listening to this book. It has practical no-nonsense information that is relevant to today while espousing key principles that never change. I can't honestly say I shared every perspective but I respect it all. The narration is lovely and very apt to the text.
"The purpose of dating is to glorify God!" This is a book that makes you think and reflect on the relationship with the Creator while gaining a good understanding of what He expects of us.
