Single? Looking for the "right person"? Convinced that if you met the "right person" everything would turn out "right?" Think again.

This guide takes a fresh approach to dating and love in the modern era by turning the search for "the one" back onto the searcher, challenging you to ask yourself tough questions like:
Am I the person that the person I'm looking for is looking for?Are the Bible's teachings about women relevant today?If sex is only physical, why is the pain of sexual sin so deep?
As you dig deep into Stanley's answers, you'll be equipped and empowered to step up and set a new standard for this generation by uncovering the things that create trouble in dating relationships and creating better habits now that will pay off later as you dive into married life.

Great points
I am a recent widow and this is a great book, I am going to encourage my teen boys to read this book. I plan to take the challenge.
Excellent!
I found this book by doing a search online. I have read many books about singleness and sex, but this book really drives the points home. I feel so supported in my decision to live a pure life until I meet the right one for me. The connection between intimacy and sex has been broken for me due to my past actions, and Pastor Stanley helped me to understand the consequences associated with this and how to begin healing and steps to become a better me. I highly recommend this book to anyone, single or married. There are some core discussion topics in this book that I wish would have been shared with me many years ago.
From once the most eligible bachelor
At one time, I thought I had everything going for me. A nice car, an high paying job, a beautiful home, and a great body. I was picking up women a lot of men would be jealous about. I knew something was missing. My original thought when I came across this book was, "This book is going to give me the edge to pick up better woman". So, I dug into this. Soon realizing, it was Gods way of saying, not to be the same person I was before. It's been about three months into the year challenge. It's been tough, but well worth it. I want to find the woman that is for me. I can't change my past, but definitely could rewrite my future. I'm not going to let my yesterday, effect my tomorrow.
