Welcome to everybody who could make it to small group last night. Nancy and I really enjoyed you and the time together that we had.

We talked about what the ideal looks like for an intimate, permanent relationship between a man and a woman - submission, love, self sacrifice, 2 becoming 1 and unconditional commitment. I especially wanted to underline the subject of becoming a person who is, by God's grace, prepared to be in such a relationship - and trusting God to bring that relationship to us in the right time.

I hope to see everyone at Mosaic on Sunday for the panel discussion. By the way, I was thinking of some possible questions ...

  • Can having high expectations and requirements for a potential mate ever turn into a self-protective wall that eventually rules out everybody?
  • What are some practical things to look for early in a dating relationship - both in me and in the person I am dating?
  • Should I listen to what my friends, parents or others say about the person I am in a relationship with? Why or why not?
  • Are women really from Venus?
Anybody have any others?
