•How do I get close enough to someone to make a decision about marriage without stealing privileges of marriage?
•How do I find the love of my life without leaving a trail of broken hearts and broken promised behind me on the way to the altar?
-A man should only pursue a woman romantically when he has the intention of pursuing marriage.
COURTSHIP:: relationship between a man and a woman who are actively and intentionally together to consider marriage.
Purpose of courtship- to find out if God would have the two of you married.
"a pathway that leads into deepening levels of seriousness as it progresses"
*its a commitment- a promise not to play games with another persons heart.
•God doesn't have a "one size fits all" plan for relationships.
-How am I suppose to follow Gods principles for courtship when my circumstances are so different from those of other people?
•it's good to be inspired by couples who have set a godly example, BUT, God isn't asking us to copy each other, but to fix our eyes on our Lord and Jesus Christ and pursue courtship in a way that is faithful to His character.
God is sovereign over our life's situations.
>courtship is a story of "boy meets girl" where-whether you choose to marry, or not, you can get to know each other in the confidence that you have only Gods very best ahead for each of you.
