"The divorce rate in our society could be dramatically reduced if more people used the 'Dating with God' approach to dating described in this book." Written by a school counselor who partially messed up his life by making bad dating choices, Straight Talk About Dating communicates important information about a God-centered approach to dating for ages 20 and up* that's an alternative to the devastating self-centered approach to dating taught to us by the media and our popular culture. In a down-to-earth way, the author explains how to prepare for dating by becoming the type of person that God wants you to date (a keeper), when and who to date, how to attract a keeper, how to do dating right, how to decide whether or not to continue in a dating relationship, the difference between the feeling of being "in love" and true love, the dangers of living together, how to decide whether or not to get married, and more. Wegert shares in each of the twenty-seven chapters something about dating or something related to dating that he wishes he'd known before dating and during dating - with the hope of helping young adults to avoid a broken heart or worse and to one day have a lifelong loving Christian marriage. The themes of how much God loves us, how He wants only the best for us, and His willingness to forgive us regardless of what we've done flow throughout the book. *Mr. Wegert's book for teens, Straight Talk About Teen Dating, is very similar to this book, but it has some additional information written just for teens.
