Every day, students have voices speaking into their lives. These voices can be obvious, like their peers, teachers, family, etc., or the voices can be subtle, like culture, media, entertainment, etc. Every voice that they hear is speaking a message and that message plays a role in their lives! Often times they don’t even know it! Through our series, Drawing The Line, we want our students to know what God says and what the culture says about many important topics in their lives!

 

This week we are going to begin the conversation on dating. In true Shakespearian fashion, we are going to be answering the question... to date or not to date? At the end of the day, the answer that we are going to give them is no, they should not date. Why? We believe that the purpose of dating is to find the characteristics in person you want to marry and spend the rest of your life with. As middle school students, there is absolutely no way that they are ready to be married. The cons far outweigh the pros when it comes to dating in middle school.
