Rob Eager has really hit on something strong here; that a dating relationship will fully prosper only when each individual is FULLY satisfied in Jesus Christ first and foremost, above all else. Eager says it is only by totally understanding Christ's love and acceptance for ourselves, that we are able to strive to correctly and unselfishly love someone else in a dating situation.

This book was referred to me during a very difficult time in my life when my 2 year dating relationship suddendely ended. It helped me understand and endure much of the heartache I lived through during that time. If you're going through a dating downfall and need clarity on what this dating thing is all about, read this book.

I know that some Christian dating books can seem over the top and impractical, but Rob Eager gives very solid and down to earth principles of what dating is really about. I was also very impressed with how Biblicaly based his book is as he constantly drops in scripture throughout the book to back up his thoughts.

Not only has this book re-tooled the way I view dating relationships, but it has encouraged my overall walk with Christ a great deal. I very highly recommend this book to anyone looking for an excellent, practical, Biblical and knowledgeable approach to dating in today's world.

It's a must buy.

Wow, this book rebuked me to the core and i am a better woman because of it. I thought it was all about me and what i wanted, but its all about Jesus, And through Jesus loving the other person through me. I never knew that God cared so much about my love life. He is my love life. love starts with God. i always thought some how that i was alone and that He really didnt understand my plight, but He has always been on my side ever before i loved a man romantically.

This book will heal you, help you, edify you, wash you, purify you, amaze you, break you, soften you and love you and teach you how to really love the person in your life.

So full of truth and relevant to today as the bible is always relevant to our times.

After i read this book i read Boundaries in Dating. i am glad i read it in that order cause i would have misundertood the use of boundaries and attacked the man i love.

God through this book will let you see the one you love the way He sees them, and He will open your eyes to see where you have been wrong. it was hard on me to see the true state of my heart, i was so ashamed of my self. i have a new love and adoration for the man i loves welfare and most of all his personal walk with God and not just what i want him to do or feel for me.

The passion of Christ was and is for every area of our lives,including dating.

Dating with Pure Passion is probably the best book I've read concerning Christian singleness. Other books tend to be overly idealistic or lean toward spiritual formulas. Rob Eagar has taken the topic of dating, and used it to point singles to their biggest need, which is understanding the love that God has towards us. This is a lesson that must be learned by every human being who wants to experience a great relationship, whether they're single or married.

I just got Dating with Pure Passion yesterday and almost finished it last night! I wish that I could have read this book 3 years ago. It's an excellent tool to learn the godly path to true love. Rob Eagar has a clear, forthright writing-style and offers relatable, real-life illustrations. I highly recommend this book!

I began reading this book with an open mind, and it changed my life! As I read, I began to understand what God wanted from me before I would ever be able to really love another person enough to give myself to him. This book shows you what God wants for you to understand about loving yourself, and gives scripture and study question to help in your journey. Truly Inspirational!!

Dating with Pure Passion is a must read for Singles and Marrieds. It places enphasis on where the real relationship must be as well as giving practical tips on avoiding negative ones. Very well written and very enjoyable to read.

Atlanta-based author Rob Eager has been there and done that. As a committed Christian he went through the harrowing shock and trauma of being deserted and abandoned by his wife after only 7 months of marriage. After spending much time in recovery with the support of friends, family, and professional resources, Eager eventually healed his deep hurt and remarried a few years later. During his healing process he turned to his Christian faith to learn from his experience and apply it not only in his life but in his ministry to other Christian singles seeking marriage. The outcome is his book Dating with Pure Passion which proposes a Christ-oriented approach to the nuts and bolts of dating. This book is filled with compassion and wisdom and a must read for those who are seeking a life-long happy partnership based on faith. Eager is down to earth and this book will surprise you ... it is not what one would expect ... and is very modern and relevant to all on the singles market.

This book is very inspiring. It puts into perspective what your priority should be when you start dating. Just briefly...before you start dating, it explains that your most important relationship should be with Jesus. Once you understand His love for you and how precious you are to Him--then you get an idea of how someone else should love and treat you. It is too bad that I didn't have this book when I was dating because it probably would have prevented a lot of pain and heartache in my life. I highly recommend this for everyone to read--adults of teenagers, young adults, and teenagers would benefit greatly from reading this book--it is interesting and an easy read. Even being single and middle-aged....I find this book beneficial....Enjoy it...

I have now read this book twice in my life. The first time I skimmed through it. Now I'm really taking the time to go through it and it truly is an eye opener. It helps you to see that dating isn't merely an act between two people, but that it takes effort, time and energy. It will truly make you evaluate your own dating relationship and how to remain pure. It gives you helpful advice on how to avoid common pitfalls of dating and when to respectfully bow out of the relationship if it's not right. I recommend both genders reading this.

I have read this book twice and purchased this one for a friend so I could get mine back! The "passion" in the title is Jesus Christ so it's "Dating with Jesus Christ". It takes our focus off the wrong things and puts it on the right things. No person can ever fill the needs you have - only Jesus can do that so by focusing on the Truth, you are free to be yourself and enjoy meeting others without making them feel like they must "fill your voids" and will help you recognize when others are hoping that you will fill their voids. It is a great read for anyone who thinks they "just have to get married or be in a relationship" to feel complete.
