Guys, Girls and God--Part 2

Monday, February 23, 2009 Share: |

I would really like your feedback on our coffeehouse discussion--Guys, Girls and God Part 2.

Here are some questions and comments you could respond to.
1. What's one thing you'll remember from our dating discussion? For example, the idea that God gave us male and female relationships to compliment us, not complete us has stayed with me now for 4 years since I first heard it.

2. What is one area of your dating life where you want to make some changes?

3. What was one thing you wished we had talked about but didn't?

4. Is there something that was said that you didn't agree with?

5. Do you have an alternative plan to find true love than the common practice of dating?

6. How comfortable are you with singleness?

7. Did our discussion about boundaries help you see them differently and in a more healthy manner?

this might go with #3, but i'm not sure if you feel it was well discussed or not. i believe the guy discussion was helpful and healthy; it was good to hear everyone's thoughts. i liked that jonathan mentioned about "pursuing a relationship."

when you asked some thoughts about what we think/thought about singleness, i had mentioned that most people will think about the future by some age and feel that he/she may not want to be single at an even older age. so there is a motivated feeling for a person to find a mate at this time and forward b/c of the common fear that there may not be someone at whatever time from now who is available and a good match for him/herself.

things did not work out for me relationship wise until my ultimate pursuit was my relationship with God. when i gained clarity on what i wanted (to be close to God and live a servant life, a rebel for Christ, to further His kingdom), it was very very clear what kind of person was good for me to be with. b/c of this change in approach to finding a mate, i believe that God blessed me by giving me a relationship partner, instead of me making efforts to get a relationship partner.
