Waiting and Dating: A Sensible Guide to a Fulfilling Love Relationship Paperback – April 4, 2013

This is a great read for ALL! Very straightforward and enlightening. Truly shifts your perspectives away from the unhealthy ideations of culture.If you are dating in alignment with Biblical principles…this book is a necessity!

I bought this book many months ago and read it in two weeks. It was good and useful but I wasn't smart enough to really use and follow the main points mentioned in this book, such as, "putting God first," walking the "friendship ladder," and "what to look for in a partner." Starting last week, I was hoping to reread some of the books I bought regarding friendship and Christian dating...and my eyes kept starring at this book, so I picked it up and read it (again), but now, everything fall into place and makes total, complete sense. Folks, to save your time, money and energy, I highly recommend you get this book and the two books below. If money is the issue, save up as much as you can just to get this book alone. Read it and reread it along with your regular daily devotion with God, because the truth is, every marriage should be based on a strong relationship and every strong relationship should derived from strong friendship.To build each step by step well, it takes time and patience, but is possible, especially with the help of God and Holy Spirit. The best part about this book is that all the necessary information is packed in only 140 pages: 96(dating) 44 (engagement)!! Many of you can read that in one day, especially when you're used to reading college textbooks. Also this book is a guideline to marriage. Although Dr. Munroe doesn't teach life after marriage, this book leads the readers to a successful marriage. It is made in the order from, preparing to date, finding the right person as well as know what to look for, then onto building friendships and lastly, engagement. Let me warn everyone not to speed up a friendship or relationship because knowing your "significant other" takes great amount of time. Just like you can't lose wight overnight or know God overnight, nor should you try to know your partner overnight.In my scenario, the biggest mistake I've made was going too far with a girl before knowing who she was on the inside. The friendship wasn't developed maturely or long enough and now I've caused a wound in her heart and wasted my own time & money, whereas I could have found the right person elsewhere. Anyways, I hope none of you go through my phase. I wish all of you the best of luck!Other books that really helps with dating/relationships are:The 10 Commandments of Dating by Ben Young & Samuel AdamsHow to Influence People and Win Friends by Dale CarnegieFor Men Only (self-explanatory) by Jeff FeldhahnGod's Gift to Women (my favorite for men) by Eric Ludy

This was the book I never knew I would need. It is simply amazing. Munroe provides thorough details of how relationships are viewed from God's perspective. This book is a must-buy for those who are single or not single!! It really transformed my approach to friendships and dating.

This is a great book to show you not only why you should wait but also how to wait and the best way to date. It is filled with practical wisdom to help you avoid the issues and guides you to a fulfilling relationship as well as fulfilling your God given reason for being here, your potential. Thank you

This is a must read for those looking to be successful in marriage. Myles Munroe gives great insight of how to pay attention when looking for a spouse. Enjoyed this book tremendously.

This book covers the basics, friendship, trust, what to look for in a mate. How to prepare yourself, and what to ask each other in order to secure a good foundation. I'd recommend! The only negative in my opinion, is the Engagement Chapter. He seemed to be repeating the same three basic principles the whole time. I don't enjoy repetitive writing that is circular in thought. The first few chapters were well written and provided no excuse not to love the book. The last two were, well, quite circular in describing it's principals. If you've never dated, have experience, or are even in the beginning of a relationship, this book is helpful. Enjoy.

This book is like the "bible" for singless! I almost highlighted every line. He speaks the truth and his points are clear and scriptural.I like that its like a guide and teaches how to properly date. Its not putting down the fact we want to date as singles, but he show us how to properly prioritize our prospectives about dating.

Dr Myles Munroe was a man of God. This book keeps you in course to follow the manual of God's standards and stay aligned on what is right. Become complete as a Man/Woman spiritually,economically,skillfully,emotionally,educationally and character wise as well. Be one with your partner on all matters which will bring order to the household and to the marriage. The children can follow that example as well. He also teaches to have self control chemically (sexually)for that can be mistaken for love. It's just a chemical trigger meant to be shared for marriage union. And before marriage,have your ducks in a row before you get married which will make it easier to transition. Great book from a great man.
