He wrote this book when he was only 21. Are you tired of the game? Been dumped? Waiting for a call that doesn’t come? Have you ever wondered, Isn’t there a better way? Most people have an opinion about "that book about not dating." Some love it; others despise it. I'd encourage you not to assume you know what it says without having read it.
He wrote Boy Meets Girl the year after he was married. It answers many of the questions that were raised by his first book, I Kissed Dating Goodbye. This book offers an alternative: an intentional, God-pleasing game plan for finding a future spouse.
Lust isn't just a guy problem - it's a human problem. And unless we honestly confront it, lust will destroy our relationships and our lives. Joshua calls a generation bombarded with images of sexual sin back to the freedom and joy of holiness. This "PG-rated" book - straightforward without being graphic - speaks to those entrenched in lust or just flirting with temptation. Honestly sharing his own struggles, Joshua exposes lust's tactics and helps readers create a personal plan for fighting back.

MARRIAGE TAKES THREE
by Beth Stuckwisch
Marriage takes three to be complete;
It's not enough for two to meet.
They must be united in love
by love's Creator, God above.
A marriage that follows God's Plan
takes more than a woman and a man.
It needs a oneness that can be
only from Christ. Marriage takes three.

Wait For Me Lyrics
by Rebecca St. James
Darling, did you know that I
I dream about you
Waiting for the look in your eyes
When we meet for the first time
And darling, did you know that I
I pray about you
Praying that you will hold on
And keep your loving eyes only for me
CHORUS:
'Cause I am waiting for, praying for you darling
Wait for me too
Wait for me as I wait for you
'Cause I am waiting for, praying for you darling
Wait for me too
Wait for me as I wait for you
Darling wait
Darling did you know
I dream about life together
Knowing it will be forever
I'll be yours and you'll be mine
And darling when I say
"Til death do us part"
I mean it with all of my heart
Now and always faithful to you
Now I know you may have made mistakes
But there's forgiveness, and a second chance
So wait for me, darling wait for me
Wait for me
Darling wait for me

This story-line grips the young reader while they learn statistically proven risk-reduction factors. The end result is usable "how-to-say-no" skills that can reduce the risk of a young woman's heart being broken by sexual sin.
Dannah Gresh is the founder of Pure Freedom that provides resources that focus on specific issues that teen girls and guys face in the area of purity.
This popular book will give girls aged 13-19 the tools they need to identify where their lives and beliefs are off course - the result of buying into Satan's lies about God, guys, media, and more. Based on surveys of over 1000 young women, the authors speak to teenage girls about the top lies they believe. It isn't enough to identify these lies, however. The authors are well-equipped to lead young women in the skills and the truths of Scripture that overcome those lies.
