No one gets married expecting their union to end in divorce. Sadly, divorce is an extremely likely outcome for many marriages. I wish these stats did not include the church, but among Christians divorce rates are a huge problem as well.
Why is there a double standard in sexuality for Christian males and females? Why do those in the church value a Christian woman’s virginity more than a Christian man’s virginity? And why do women get shamed for sexual sin much more than men do by Christians?
Have you ever said to yourself, “There are is no other Christians my age who I would consider dating”? And yet, as you look around at all the other Christians who are getting married, you can help but wonder where they are meeting each other.
There are countless reasons Christians remain single even when they wish they were married. They usually fall somewhere in between “It’s just not in God’s plan right now” and “You are doing something wrong that is keeping you single.”

What are the signs of a cult leader? How can you identify a leader of a cult? And what kind of language will cult leaders use to deceive their loyal cult followers?
There’s an assault on the church’s sexual purity. We are surrounded on all sides by a culture that glorifies external beauty, quick pleasure, and porn. So it’s no surprise to see the satanic claws of sexual immorality trying to squeeze the life out of Christians. Affairs, premarital sex, and the deadly glow of a smart phone late at night in the hands of a young boy with no accountability – these are the glaring sexual idols of our day.
But idolatry loves to swing from one extreme to the other.
Most Christians know the general boundaries in dating. While premarital sex is usually the main concern when trying to avoid “crossing the line” before marriage, singles should also be aware of the dangers with emotional promiscuity as well. There are emotional boundaries in Christian dating that should not be crossed.
Christian dating is often such a challenge because you are supposed to be growing in your relationship but you are also supposed to be guarding your heart before marriage. You are supposed to be attracted to the person you are dating, but as Christians you are also supposed to resist sexual interactions with each other before marriage.
Why do I believe the Bible is the word of God? How do we know the Bible is really God’s word? Should Christians believe the Bible is God’s word since so many say it is not?
