Book descriptions are meant to be in third-person, aren’t they? Oh well. I wrote a blog post about dating not too long ago. It was called Dear Guys. This book is directly based off of that post. I wanted to turn the blog post into a book because I knew it would give me a chance to go even more in depth on the topic of dating. Dear Guys: A New Way To Date is a quick, solid read that will refresh you on the reasons why we date, and the reasons why we don’t. Dear Guys isn’t your typical Christian dating book – it’s not a book telling you when to date, or how to date, it’s all about why we date – because when we figure out the why, it will change the when and the how. It’s not very formal either, it reads much more like a conversation, and that excites me. I’m more of a blogger than I am a writer, the difference being that writers know how to use commas and stuff, and I don’t.
The chapter on pornography has good, solid ideas, but I think there should've been more depth to it. And the conclusion that pornography addiction can be broken simply by remembering that the people involved are God's children seems a bit flimsy... If that were the case there would far, far fewer Christians who are addicted to pornography.
A vary fast paced and to the point book. It has strong biblical fundation and solid arguments, but is easy to follow and read, which is what you want if you are writting to teenagers. I didn't give it 5 stars just because it felt to much like a conversation, and although Cole warns you that he is a blogger, not a writer, I noticed it while reading. A very good book!
