Getting out of a relationship with grace
The time of dating is there to see if we are ready to live with this person forever. Sometimes we realize, no, this relationship can not continue. So how to break up with someone while minimizing the damage?
Ask instead of assuming
How many times have you come to a conclusion about a situation, or worse, about a person, without even asking a few questions to see if your assumptions were valid? We have all made this mistake. It’s time to put a stop to that.
The divine dictionary
In our human and limited vision, we often forget that the definition that God gives to certain notions is very different from ours. It is when we consult the “divine dictionary” that we find the right balance.
How do you know if it's the right person?
It’s one of the biggest decisions of our life. As children of God, we know that there is no turning back. So we want to be sure to marry the right person. What are the signs to look for?

If you are going to do something, do it with excellence!
It is easy to drag our feet and fall into neglect in different areas of our lives. But negligence attracts negligence. So it pays to roll up our sleeves, listen to the way of the Holy Spirit, and act with excellence.
Having a chaperone ... is it relevant?
The young couples that date under the eye of a chaperone is rare. By the way, it’s not even a Bible practice. Yet in many Christian circles, we still hear about it. So, do we leave that in the past, or is it still wise to use it?
No more secret agents!
Because they are afraid of being judged, ridiculed, or scorned, some Christians do not dare to speak about their faith. They are the “secret agents” of Christianity. Yet testifying to our faith and preaching the Word need not be a daunting practice.
Leaving the past behind
Jesus died on the cross and was buried, but He didn’t stay there. We celebrate Easter to remind ourselves that Jesus has risen, that He is alive, and that we too can live in His resurrection.
