I have heard from several of you that you don't think that I would be interested in your relationship stories because they don't reflect Christian principles. Well, neither do mine! If my relationships had, I would not be writing this book, nor this blog. If I had approached my relationships from the standpoint of my relationship with Christ, as opposed to my relationship with my self-centered self, then I would not have had the developmental experiences that brings me to this point. God has been very gracious to me in this journey. Through all of my travails, I have learned the endless satisfaction which comes from loving him first. For years, I tried to fill up the emptiness in me with other people. I only ended up emptier. My imperfections have led me on a journey of wholeness through my love for Christ.
So, don't be shy! send me your stories about relationship situations which may have gone off-track, and how it affected your spiritual development. There are plenty of stories in which the relationship progressed in accordance with Christian principles and still did not work out. And, there are many which have worked out. I can't wait to read your story.
