Having followed Marshall Segal's articles on singleness and dating for quite some time, I had a pretty good idea of how this book would unfold. I have been anticipating reading it since it was announced. Singleness and dating amongst Christians is one of the weaker and under addressed areas of Christianity, especially theologically, in my opinion. Not Yet Married is not about waiting quietly in the corner of the world for God to bring you "the one," but about inspiring you to live and date for more now. If you follow Jesus, the search for a spouse is no longer a pursuit of the perfect person, but a pursuit of more of God. Not Yet Married has two parts. The first is "the not-yet-married life.". Here Segal channels many of Desiring God's hallmark themes—passion and purpose, joy in mission, and the glory of God—and applies them to singleness. In the second part, "when the not-yet-married meet," he deals with the particulars of Christian dating.
“Timely. Relevant. Solid. In a cultural climate where singleness is equally celebrated and stigmatized, and dating is misunderstood and mispurposed, Marshall Segal injects a breath of biblical fresh air. With Scripture as its undergirding, Not Yet Married is a helpful guide to honoring God in any relational status. Married or not, single or dating, I hope you’ll read this book.”. Chapter 15 is filled with wisdom on having accountability during the dating season. Not Yet Married is built on the foundation that dating is for pursuing clarity in whether a couple should marry, postponing intimacy for those who end up married. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is not yet married.
