Straight Talk About Teen Dating

If I'd only known the truth about . . .

Written by a school counselor who partially messed up his life by making bad dating choices, Straight Talk About Teen Dating communicates important information about a God-centered approach to dating that is an alternative to the self-centered devastating 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, why saving yourself for marriage is the best thing for the long-term health of a relationship, how to decide whether or not to get married, and more. Wegert shares in each of the twenty-five 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 teens 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. This book is very similar to the book Straight Talk About Dating which was written for young adults age 20 and up. Your purchase of this book helps the True Love Lasts organization to achieve its mission "To strengthen the family by helping to increase the number of lifelong loving marriages through education."

Virtual Narrator

The virtual narrator was terrible, but the book itself brought up many great discussion topics.
