Concise, Christian Look at Relationships

This is a book that would be applicable for the newly dating to the older single. (I gave a copy to my 15 year old twins and my 30 year old single son.) Focusing on what's really important in a mate AND in your own life, it really gives a good argument against what I call "recreational dating." My 15 year old daughter did this as a book study with several other girlfriends and it totally changed her attitude. I highly recommend it.

WOW! An Eye Opener

When Love's in View: Finding Focus in Dating and Relationships by Dr. Conway & Jada Edwards is the most exhaustive book I have read concerning Christian dating. The book is written from both male and female perspectives, which presents a more intimate approach. The authors begin with redirecting the single individual's focus from getting married to pleasing God. They offer precise examples, complete with biblical references, of acceptable behavior and characteristics of godly men and women. The authors didn't stop there, but also gives readers practical solutions to many issues troubling singles today. This guide is a must read for everyone in search of a life partner.

A deftly written guide

For some, finding the right someone has more to do with just how attractive they are and other superficial subjects - but if their faith is as strong as theirs. "When Love's In View: Finding Focus in Dating and Relationships" is a dating help guide with a Christian focus, for those who want that man or woman to have a place for God as well as them. Covering six behaviors of Godly men, and eight behaviors of godly women, asking the bible about relationships and eventually tying the knot, and frequently asked questions involving the faith and the dating scene. "When Love's In View: Finding Focus in Dating and Relationships" is a deftly written guide and highly recommended for Christian singles everywhere and for community library dating collections with a cross over to Christian studies.

Wow. The Best Resource for Singles & Married Folk

This book by Dr. Conway and Jada Edwards is the tool you need to "divorce proof" your marriage or help you pick your true love, life mate. They don't give you their opinion - they give you the true and tested Word from God. It has questions at the end with answers that are a BIG help. Good book. Great endorsements. Top quality and quick read. Pam Perry Chocolate Pages Reviews

Inquiring Minds of Single Christians Want to Know!

When Love's in View is a great book that encourages single believers to stay focused on God and remain content while serving Him. Biblically based with practical insight and transparent examples from the authors' own experiences, this book is a true testament to God's faithfulness when we seek Him first and live to please Him with our lives. I especially enjoyed the Q & A section in the back of the book which went more in depth with the concept of "Christian dating," and featured Questions such as, "Why does it seem that many Christian men prefer not to court the Christian ladies in their own church?" Excellent read and a must have for Christian singles!
