Unwritten Rules of Dating in our Fellowship

Pastor's Unwritten Rules for Dating

1. The 6 month rule. Let new converts alone for 6 months. Let them serve the Lord for a while first. 

2. Don't play the field. Be patient. Let God help you find the right one.

3. Limit your scope. Have a target audience to draw from. Date someone from your own church.

4. Seek counsel from pastor or others. Get advice on a person or an activity.

5. Friendship first. Get to know someone. Talk to them.  Do not rush into marriage.

6. Let the man make the first move. Men, break the ice. Women, be open and receptive to a man's advances.

7. Be the kind of person you want the other person to be. To marry a Christian, be a Christian.

This is good advice. Especially if you are young and unmarried. It gives you guidelines to use in place of pure emotions.
