Standing Firm or Just Kickin it for Awhile?

Over the past several months I have been talking with single Christians (at least 50). Specifically, I am asking the tough questions, "Do you date non-christians?", "What is your expectation for dating and intimacy?", "How does your faith fit in when choosing someone for your relationship?" I have been surprised to find that most men and women have very worldly views when it comes to dating and they have no problem dating an atheist or someone from another religion, they want someone with a Christian belief but not a Christ following lifestyle, there is an expectation that sex will be part of the relationship, and many are willing to lay aside their beliefs in order to get the guy or girl they want.

If a person can't stand on his/her faith when it comes to considering a life partner, then will they stand firm for anything? What ramifications do you see down the road for these decisions in our society?

Happy blogging!

Welcome to the Inside of My Brain

Hey everyone! I created this blog to start conversations about our faith in Christ. As I read and learn I will be posing questions to all of you and asking what you think. I am hoping we will learn from one another and challenge our thinking so that we are more effective and sharing God’s love, grace, and truth with the world. So don’t hold back, tell me what you think, and let the conversation begin!

Question:

If Jesus came to save the lost, then why do we spend so much time involved in church activities and Christian events?
