Customer Reviews

for one of my teens

I purchased this book for one of the teens that is in my youth group. She read the book rather quickly and said it provided a lot of good thoughts that helped her in a lot of ways. So without reading it myself, I can recommend it on her behalf.

A Delightful Read

From the first sentence to the last word this book grabs your attention and takes you on a delightful journey into a young woman's soul. Full of stories and delightful illustrations, this book gives a new perspective to the romance that all woman long for.

Don't be fooled by the title!

Do not be fooled by the title! This book is not trying to sell you on a list of rules for dating, and the author is most definately not pushing her own commitments on anyone else. This book is refreshingly different from other Christian dating books because it deals mainly with character building and becoming more like Jesus. Lisa reveals that our focus should be on finding our identity in Christ before we try to find love and acceptance in relationships. If you are dating or wish you were, you will find Saving My First Kiss helpful as you look at romance in light of God's will for your life. I think many Christian girls will agree with Lisa when she says: "I am working to become the woman that I want to be--the kind of woman whom the man of my dreams will fall madly in love with."
