“This is my last sermon as a single man.”

Jennifer Terrell & Steve DeWitt

“This is a message that I have waited 44 years to give,” pastor Steve DeWitt told Bethel Church in Crown Point, Indiana.

His congregation immediately knew what he was talking about and started to cheer.

He told them anyway, to shouts, claps, and whistles: “This is my last sermon as a single man.”

Be careful that your efforts to “be prepared” for whenever God brings you into a courtship don’t leave you with a narrow view of how He will work.  Be careful not to construct a formula in your head as to how a courtship should look.  And above all, be careful to submit every aspect of future romantic relationships to our Father…including how you think they’ll look and play out.  Because as many courtship books remind us, God really does write the best love stories.

-Jessica Telian in "Real life isn't always like the courtship books"
