I think it is a great article. And, so true. I was once married to a christian man for 13 years, but he had some issues and left our marriage and family. It was hard to trust again and i got really cold against my church, but i know now that i want Jesus back into my life, and for the past 4 years i've been dating a non-christian who does not believe in Jesus or he is just very skeptical, i'm just not sure. I know Jesus is coming again very soon and i want so much for my family and i to be ready to meet Jesus, but The man i am dating is so deeping involved in the things of the world that i don't think that he will get out of it. I just pray for the strength to move on without him if need be. I pray for him constantly, but to no avail; Please help me to reach some decisions on this matter.

God bless;
Christina Tucker

Great article, and extremely relevant to my current situation. I'm an Australian and found myself highly attracted to a non-christian (presumed) american student studying in AUstralia. I don't often get this attracted to a woman, christian or not - but let's say that our personalities and interests in outdoor persuits really clicked. SO far I've held back from marrying because I felt I had to be certain that my marriage partner was ordained by God, and not just something I was willfully persuing - a difficult thing to do for christian guys also.

I met this lady serving behind a counter at a store and immediately hit it off with her. However, her intentions conveyed more than just a passing interest and I found myself drawn to her romantically though I didn't persue anything. I can relate to the lady in this story not conveying her faith openly to Jake initially, and I know that I should have done the same. I hope others also profit from this story.
