Publisher's Synopsis
What's love got to do with it? Media and society certainly have a lot to say on this issue. In fact, many of the messages teenagers today receive about the purpose of love, sex and relationships directly contradict God's plan for relationships. THE JOURNEY OF LOVE READER is a collection of short essays that enable you to compare and contrast God's purpose and plan for love, sex and relationships to contradictory messages from modern youth culture. These essays will help you consider issues like: · What school boy-girl relationships should be like · How to handle being disappointed in love · How to enjoy dating that is healthy and fun · What to do if you've been emotionally hurt · How to develop good friendships · How to handle a broken promise · How to know whether someone is worthy of your trust · What to do if a relationship becomes physically abusive · Why "giving in" and having sex is wrong for teens Reflection questions in each chapter help you apply the information to your own life. This workbook contains supplemental material for the Journey of Love curriculum that can help you create good and meaningful relationships with family, friends and God.
