When I read this for the first and only time, I had just parted ways with a high school girlfriend. Our relationship had been the most intense I&apos,d ever had, and while we were in it, we were both pretty positive that this was real and fervent love. She&apos,s now happily married to a great guy who isn&apos,t me, and I&apos,m now happily married to an amazing woman who isn&apos,t her. I&apos,m not proud of how it ended, but it needed to. This book fell into the midst of that dynamic in my life, and it rocked me. It's weird. When I read this for the first and only time, I had just parted ways with a high school girlfriend.

This book fell into the midst of that dynamic in my life, and it rocked me. Not date girls casually as a means to get to know them, and instead enjoy healthy friendships, one day implementing the idea of courting a girl whom you were led to by the Lord? At the time, amazing! In many ways, I needed this book then. It helped to focus me, and remind me of the importance and necessity of my heart's need for Christ first and foremost, before all things and before all others. Would I still recommend it? Would I tell someone else that "You should read this in order to know how God wants us to deal with dating, relationships, and the whole nine yards?" It's doubtful. It helped me, but it also contributed to and suggested a rigidity of interaction and relationship that eventually had to be cast aside in order for me to develop relationship and fall in love with the woman who would become my life. This book is one of a number of different books that I'd suggest reading (if you insist on reading it) with a constant consideration of its contents as "idea" and "suggestion", whether or not it says "this is what you have to do". Very real problems tend to arise when Christians hammer things down and define them with no wiggle room for mystery, change, trust, and guidance by the Holy Spirit. . more. I am a 17 year old christian teenage girl who has lived her relationship life according to this book and has no regrets. I have healthy friendships with a lot of guys but--amazingly enough--not a single boyfriend. And my life has been just fine for it. Actually, my life has been great. The whole point of the book is that there is a season for everything: a season for investing in friendships, and a season for dating/courting for the purpose of marriage.

The whole point of the book is that there is a season for everything: a season for investing in friendships, and a season for dating/courting for the purpose of marriage. This has worked just fine for all the people around me (most singles in my church don't practice dating either), and there has been no lack of wonderful marriages. I don't date, but that doesn't mean I've thrown away marriage. I'm just using my time to serve God instead of committing my heart to a boyfriend right now. (Which is the whole point of the book). It is actually a fun book, and very easy to read. Josh is not condemning, but he does let people know that there are other options out there besides dating. . more. I know no one&apos,s going to read my review, but I&apos,ve just been itching to write it. I have a feeling it will turn into a long rambling session since I feel pretty strongly about this subject. I know I&apos,m just another young adult who wasn&apos,t fond of this book, so my critique is probably insignificant among the sea of others out there. I know that I&apos,m just &quot,young and foolish&quot, and how could I ever question this book&apos,s teachings-everyone should do it!

I know that I'm just "young and foolish" and how could I ever question this book's teachings-everyone should do it! Everyone who has ever followed what Joshua Harris says has wonderful results and a lifelong, heavenly marriage, right? As someone who had to read this in my junior year of high school (I was homeschooled), I don't necessarily believe that. Sure, there are some couples who did the whole courtship thing and ended up marrying the love of their life. As long as they're truly happy, who am I to tell them what they should have done? I just don't believe courtship works for everyone. This is what I think: let teenagers be teenagers. They're not impure if they hold hands. They don't suddenly lose their innocence if they have crushes. They're not damaged goods for kissing their boyfriend or girlfriend. They're not immoral if they do have a boyfriend or girlfriend in the first place. Nearly everyone who is a strong advocate for courtship is all like, "But you'll regret your stupid choices one day. Guard your heart!" You know what I do regret? Never experiencing that part of being a teenager. I will never know what it's like. Maybe deep down, I'm still one of those girls who is desperate or maybe I'm just being sentimental. But honestly, don't take those years for granted. I'm not saying that teenagers should be reckless and do everything on a whim. Not at all. Logic and common sense should (obviously) be valued. I simply believe that keeping your heart under lock and key at all times is a terrible-possibly damaging-idea. Besides, C.S. Lewis said "to love at all is to be vulnerable." You know what else makes you vulnerable? Being alive. If you do break up with your significant other and feel sad for awhile, that's just part of life! It won't be unbearable and you will get through it. Life is all about discovery, full of warmth and rawness and giving and taking and pouring yourself out! It is impossible to avoid pain in life, and shielding yourself from "getting hurt" by romantic relationships is only going to increase your fear of the world. I'm going to try to word this in a way that makes sense, but which sounds better to you.
