Recent books on courtship and dating have raised some difficult questions about the proper approach Christians should take for finding a life partner. This book lays out the major views and unpacks their scriptural arguments. If you're trying to understand all the views and think carefully through their biblical merit, here is the book you are looking for.
--John MacArthur, pastor and author
Alex Chediak has done the church a great favor by detailing in clear language the ways serious believers may think about the path to marriage. Though he shows there is no "one size fits all" in this adventure in discipleship, he helps the reader discern God's will by offering illuminating points of comparison and contrast among the options. Plus, the anecdotes and stories he tells make the book fun to read. In the future, I hope he'll try his hand at other issues where Christians may legitimately disagree.

Here are a few endorsements for the book:
