Synopsis

The Bible has some fascinating stories of how two people met and married - like Isaac, Rebekah and their thirsty camels in Genesis. But you'll search in vain for Bible stories that resemble the modern-day custom we call 'dating', or for explicit teaching from Jesus or his apostles on the topic. So how do we navigate the road from singleness to marriage, which is paved with potential pitfalls, temptations and hurts - unhelpfully influenced as we are by our culture's godless view of dating and sex? In Water for My Camels, Paul Grimmond takes us on a deep dive into the Bible's teaching on marriage and singleness, showing how it shapes our approach to dating. With his usual wit and humility, Paul guides us into biblical answers to the 'who', 'when' and 'how' dating questions, while also honestly and humbly tackling other thorny issues like:How do I know if it's God's will for me to get married? How do I find a like-minded person to date, and is online dating a good idea? How do I start or end a dating relationship? How do I get over the pain of a breakup? How do we know when we're ready for marriage? How can we keep God at the centre of our dating relationship? Paul Grimmond has spent decades talking to young men and women about the practicalities of dating. He is the Dean of Students at Moore Theological College in Sydney, and prior to that he worked in ministry to university students. He is the author of a number of other books, including Suffering Well and When the Noise Won't Stop. Paul safely navigated the space between singleness and being married to his wife, Cathy.
