Runaway Bride: reasons to run from dating a non-Christian

One of the strongest desires that most of us experience is the desire to be in a relationship, and ultimately to get married. The desire for intimacy, security, and sexuality has such a gravitational pull that most of us at one point or other will be tempted to think that we are the exception to the rule.  Which rule?

If you aren’t toying with the idea now, there’s a high chance that at some point over the next few years, you will be. Please read Kathy Keller’s blog – if not for yourself, to prepare yourself for helping a friend. Tim and Kathy Keller have been counseling singles and married couples about this issue for decades. There’s lots of great wisdom here. Take it from the sadder but wiser: please save yourself from heartbreak and for the Lord.
