I am unaware of Pastors pushing for people to rush into marriage, but if they are they need to stop. Marriage has to be between two people who are willing to fight to keep it moving forward. Pre-marital sex is tough for Christians, but as the young lady ahead of me said, "marriage/relationships are not built solely on relations." You keep on living and building your future, and maybe you won't find him. In fact he may just find you.agiantsinnce82https://www.blogger.com/profile/04032001045698876850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-144814342154772729.post-91496926346867239962010-06-06T09:27:40.043-04:002010-06-06T09:27:40.043-04:00Yes, Katisha you're right.

Pastors should focus on teaching how to get through the difficult times of being alone instead of the urgency to get married.

Which is why I can't understand the method so many churches use to help counsel singles. Many churches encourage the urgency to marry to avoid premarital relations, however we all know marriage/relationships are not built solely on relations....<br /><br />I don't know why I'm posting this comment it just came to mind that single Christians really do struggle with dating and being alone, it is real, I don't care how much God you have in you, it's hard. I do believe that it's okay to not want to be alone, afterall we are supposedly designed to desire a partner.<br /><br />As always, Love you Cheryl!Katisha Spruillnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-144814342154772729.post-45861192844797987332010-06-05T11:34:00.747-04:002010-06-05T11:34:00.747-04:00Ok, ok...no jokes...you hit the nail on the head w...Ok, ok...no jokes...you hit the nail on the head with those 10 reasons...its the little dinky things you remember.Jamellnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-144814342154772729.post-77396791345698584012010-06-05T11:31:21.904-04:002010-06-05T11:31:21.904-04:00Comment?Comment?Jamellnoreply@blogger.com
