Clearing up a little confusion…

At least two comments have pointed this out to me, so I’d like to say something about my dating/courting/betrothal series.  My definitions of the three terms are by no means the same as yours.  None of the three terms can be defined in a way that satisfies everyone, so I’m not even going to try.  [...]

Dating/Courting/Betrothal – Part 5: Betrothal

Betrothal:
This is the one of the three that I am least qualified to speak on, but as it is a legitimately practiced method of pursuing a spouse, I must make my best attempt to deal with it here.
Betrothal is similar to courting in that it builds off of what is taught in the Bible. However, [...]

Dating/Courting/Betrothal – Part 4: Courting

Courting:
(Eph 5:13-33) “Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh. This mystery is profound, and I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church. However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife [...]

Theme

Yeah, yeah, I changed the theme again.  My Dad says that I change themes about as often as a car changes oil.   Sorry about that. I’ve had some complaints from an asthetic point of view about my old theme, so I decided to try another one.  I first saw this theme at dadreformed.com, [...]

Dating/Courting/Betrothal – Part 3: Dating

Dating:
(Mat 5:27-28)  “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’  But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
Dating, the act of “going out” with multiple people of the opposite gender based on physical attraction (aka [...]

Dating/Courting/Betrothal – Part 2: Introduction

Sorry to keep y’all waiting, but my post on Dating/Courting/Betrothal is finished.  However, it is …fairly… long, so I’ve decided to post it in parts, one post every day.  This counts as the first part, but It’s just an introduction and a list of useful resources.
In this post, I discussed the definitions of the three ways [...]

R.C. Sproul speaks on the “Seeker-Sensitive” movement and the Emergent Church

I got these from Dad Reformed.

Quick Update

I’m in the middle of several things right now, but I thought I’d just drop by and give y’all an update on what’s been going on.  I’ve been struggling with school as a result of medical problems and general laziness, and that has kept me off of the computer over the weekend, but I’ve got [...]

The Death Of Emily Stauffer.

This is Emily Stauffer.  If you read much news, you’ve probably heard about this young lady.  She was killed walking down a street in her neighborhood, in the middle of the day.  Two young men found her, but by that time it was too late.  You’ve heard that part.  You’ve heard the part about the [...]

Dating/Courting/Betrothal

Before I dive into the different ways to conduct a relationship, I think it would be helpful to define the three terms in the title of this post, just for clarification.
Dating:  The act of “going out” with multiple people of the opposite gender, and eventually “getting serious” with one of them.  Throughout this process, many [...]
