In this recent mini-series, I’ve been dwelling a lot on the negative. A friend said my first post made her sad. Can’t blame her! She and I had talked about dating from a Christian angle before, and she suggested I talk about how Jesus gives [...]
In another post in this dating series that reeks of positivity, I discussed problems with dating/sex culture and assessed Tomi Lahren’s “a lot of men are trash” comments. But the problems with dating in the 21st century are a long list. I think our social [...]
