Biblical Dating: Is there such a thing?

Biblical Dating: Is there such a thing?

We have just started a short series on dating in high school on Wednesday night.  It’s been a while since we’ve gone through the topic together.  No matter how many times we walk through this topic, I’m always a bit surprised to find how much of the world has tinged or even taken over our understanding of relationships of any kind.  That said, there are a ton of biblically based resources out there to refute the seemingly universal understanding of dating.  I would like to share one that has been very helpful for years now to me in walking through this touchy topic with students and parents. There are others, but this one has been of particular value.  It’s bible-saturated and bible-driven, which is especially hard to find: The Biblical Dating Series by Scott Croft Scott Croft was an elder at Capitol Hill Baptist Church in D.C. for many years. If you’re wondering what biblical dating might look like, this article is a good place to start.  Either way, whether it’s for you or to help with someone else, I have found this biblical treatment, and its associated Q&A section, very helpful.  I hope it’s helpful!
