 Missing the point of Christianity? November 14, 2008
1 out of 3 found this review helpful
I think the point of Christianity is not for God to help you find a mate... Did I miss something? I thought the point of Christianity was for us to worship God with our lives. In other words, Christianity is not a means to an end (helping to find a husband), but rather an end in itself. Loving God is the ultimate benefit.
In fact, to state it more broadly, God is not so much concerned with our comfort and temporary (worldly) happiness, as much as He IS concerned with molding us to be like Christ.
Have you considered that it might be possible that God's Will for your life include singleness? I mean, God is in total control over our lives. We should simply focus on getting closer to Him, and whether He brings in a guy is His decision... but He *could* actually choose to NOT bring in a guy. And if that is His Will, then it would be the best of all possible scenarios (unless you would like to argue that you know better than God).
If you have a defense for this book, I really am open to hearing it. I'm sorry if I've offended anyone with my views, that was not my purpose.
 Get Married: An Excellent Resource July 31, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This was an excellent approach to singleness and marriage in today's Christian culture. Candice raises many great questions and challenges readers without feeling threatening or bossy. I loved the way that she illuminated hope and faith as the essential substance of our prayers regarding marriage and our lives as we seek to live in a Christ honoring way.
Easy to read with interesting, honest content May 15, 2008

This book is easy to read and as I read it I realized that a lot of what Candace says I've also said. I found it quite easy to follow and I nodded my head a lot as I read through it. There were some things from her own experience that made a lot of sense to me. There were also some things that I learned from her experience that helped me. A good read for a 20-something year old, but even good for a 30-something who's still single.
Wow! May 8, 2008

I was very skeptical at first when I saw the title and "what women can do to help it happen" but after reading it I realized that it was very God-centered and biblical. The point of the book is not so much trying to figure out what women can do to "hunt down a man" but to truly honor and value marriage and to realize it's okay to have the desire to be married.

This book offered a fresh perspective on being a single Christian women. I recommend it to everyone that would like to be married.
