About this listen
Imagine possessing the knowledge and confidence to navigate the dating scene in God-approved ways that lead to less comedy or horror - and more character development and happily-ever-after.
There’s a lot of confusion and heartache surrounding the process of finding the love of your life. Do you feel like you are just stumbling around in the dark, hoping to find the right answers and the right person? Is there really someone out there for you, and if so, how will you know?
The good news: God has a plan for your dating relationships, and offers you the light of his Word and his Spirit to guide you in the decisions and details that shape your love life.
In this concise and eminently practical book, veteran Pastor Ken Harper offers guidance on:
- How to be sure you’re ready for marriage
- What to look for in a potential mate
- How to deal with your issues so you don’t carry them into every new relationship
- The roles of emotions, bonding, and boundaries in dating
- Warning signs and how to protect yourself and your partner from unnecessary heartache
- How to date with intention, ask the hard questions, and keep the relationship moving forward in a positive, proactive way
At the end of each chapter, application-focused questions and an action step will help you personalize these biblically sound principles for your own dating life.
Dating doesn’t have to be a season of frustration and repeated disappointment. Listen to No More Dating in the Dark to learn how applying God’s Word to your dating life and committing to his best can make this a season of experiencing God’s blessing, leadership, and provision in your life.

Being a genuine disciple of Christ flows out of a relationship with him. It's about experiencing God's grace, not earning his love through performance. A real relationship with Jesus Christ will produce a follower whose life looks progressively more like his life. Romans 12 provides a relational profile of an authentic disciple: someone who is surrendered to God, separate from the world's values, sober in self-assessment, serving in love, and supernaturally responsive to evil with good.

The love that the world tells us to pursue is all about self, about following your heart’s desires. But what is the Christian worldview on love? When we follow Jesus, we realize that he invites us to reorient the focus of our lives, so instead of chasing love primarily for our own happiness, we are first and foremost to give love - to God and to others.

Since the very beginning, God's design for marriage is for husbands and wives to be ambassadors of holy love to a hurting world. Still, so many couples stop short at happy and wonder why they feel unsatisfied. Rather than "you and me against the world", God calls each couple to the rich and meaningful mission of "you and me for the world".
