Traci and Luke have only been dating two months. But love—the big L-word – is already on their minds. It’s no wonder they are thinking about love, since we live in a love-crazed culture. Love is the predominant theme in many of our popular songs, movies, novels, and TV programs. Everywhere you look in the world of entertainment, someone is either falling into love, falling out of love, making love, faking love, giving love, needing love, living in love, or dying for love.
In the real world, life without love is the pits. The yearning to love and be loved by someone is as common as a heartbeat and breathing. Everyone seems to crave true love, a love that is strong and deep, a love that will last for all time. Yet the pursuit of love has caused more heartache and pain, more brokenness and bitterness, than all the diseases and wars in history.
Some Christians at my college challenged me to prove that the Bible was not accurate. As a skeptic, I spent 2 years trying to do this, and concluded that the Bible that we have today describes accurately what was said and done 2000 years ago. When I then read the Bible, I saw that God wanted a personal relationship with me. I want you to see that God also wants a personal relationship with you, one that you can depend upon in your life.
