We've focused these last two weeks on what NOT to do in a relationship, now it's time to take a look at some practical guidelines that will help both parties grow while dating.

NOTE: THE AUDIO CUTS OUT THROUGH THIS MESSAGE. ALL MESSAGES AFTER THIS HAVE BEEN CORRECTED. Did (do??) these creatures exist? Were there lost civilizations? You may know that the apostolic sign gifts are not for today, but would you be able to walk somebody through the Bible and show them the reason why?

Not only do you need to keep yourself pure physically, but emotions out of control can sometimes be just as deadly to a relationship. This message will cover some practical steps from the Word of God to help ensure our emotions don't get the better of us or our dating relationship.

For the first time ever, we're making our PowerPoint presentations available on the same website as our study sheets. You can find both here within an hour after the podcast is posted: fbcjsolidyouth.wordpress.com

While you may think you have the answers to some, you might be surprised to find what the Bible really has to say about these subjects. The Holy Spirit once again has threaded all three of these questions together. We also finish last week's discussion on the Great Pyramid.

Mankind has always had a sex problem all throughout the Bible. We can't think that we're immune in the most perilous time in history (2 Timothy 3:1). If you're convinced you're ready to date, you better make sure that your members are mortified (Colossians 3:5).

Tonight was loaded...and each question bleeds into the next. Buckle up, buckaroo!

We conclude the character qualities of a person you should date from our study in Genesis 24. The key emphasis being on the word "character". We'll see from the Bible that this all important virtue must take precedence over everything else when it comes to dating.

Do we know what the rivers flowing out of Eden are and is there any significance to it? Was there one big supercontinent at one point, and if so, did Noah's flood cause the split? Never would I think that these questions would generate such fun and enthusiastic dialogue among the group.

After last week's message on knowing who not to date (regarding both the lost AND saved), we're now looking at what the Bible has to say as it pertains who to date. We'll be diving straight into Genesis 24 for our foundation as we cover two pivotal points out of four.
