Want to Date Like You Know What You’re Doing? We have a book and video curriculum for that!

A dating life that leads to a life-giving, lifelong marriage doesn’t happen by accident. You need to know what you’re doing.

That’s why I wrote this book to empower you to:

  • Discern God’s will for your dating life.
  • Avoid heartbreak, rejection, and regret.
  • Date with clarity, confidence, and courage.
  • Win the war over sexual temptation.
  • Let your marriage hopes inspire, instead of impede your dating life.

I believe you can accomplish all that and have a blast doing it. So let’s dig in and learn how!

Though the writing style is fun, this book is filled with enough ‘zinger’ nuggets of wisdom to transform your thinking about how to date.

This is a Christian dating book void of legalism and full of practical, spirit-filled ways to date with wisdom. Coupled with Michael’s great sense of humor, I found it almost impossible to put down. (Danya says far more in the video below.)
