My book review on:
Kiss Dating Goodbye
by Joshua Harris

I think that Kiss Dating Goodbye has impacted me a lot. It is a very inspirational book for anyone who reads it. As Joshua Harris says in his book, “The joy of intimacy is the reward for commitment.” See with that he goes and talks about how people now days don’t want to commit they just want to date for a little for fun. But why?

We all need more commitment in our lives. In this book, as I read through I began to think about how I wish everyone I knew could just read a little bit of this book and get to see the truth about dating. I want to court when I get older, and this book sealed the deal for me. Joshua says over and over in the book that, “Singleness isn’t a punishment from God it is a gift!” And for me that is just an amazing way to put it.

When you tell people you don’t date, they call you crazy, nuts and weird but; Joshua tells you how to face it and encourages you when you feel tempted. “With practical guidance on making the transition from friendship to marriage you’ll find out for yourself how reordering your romantic life in the light of God’s word can lead to greater fulfillment.” I like that, quote because it shows that all relationships should have God in the middle of your relationship, no matter what.

                        __________
It shows us dating in a whole new way never thought of by some people. Learning the true definition of love, He says, “You don’t have to prove someone wrong to do what you know is right.” That to me is so cool and so true, we live in this world where being single is because you’re not cool or not good enough. The author says being single is a gift from God, it gives a time to mature, learn, and to focus on one thing: God. This book teaches how to get on the road to righteousness, five attitude changes to help you avoid defective dating; it also recognizes dating’s negative tendencies. The author teaches, how to have a biblical and realistic vision of marriage, plus how Jesus can redeem your past, writing a love story you’ll feel proud to tell. All these things are so crucial to the way of courting; to me it shows the boundaries and the beauties, of Courting. I hope you enjoy it and I hope that it affects you like it did me.
