The 3 Steps of Courting

• Deepen your friendship - don’t hurry
• Relax and enjoy each other’s company
• Share your life - the fun, mundane, and in-between
• Work and Play together
• Let them see the “real you”
• Be a student of ——.  Understand them better to have a better friendship
• Appropriate pace, focus, and space
• Pace=unhurried
• Focus=get to know each other
• Space=let the amount of space it holds in your life start small and grow

Step Two:
  Fellowship

• A Strong Spiritual Foundation
• God must be your common passion
• Men take the lead here
• Find ways to pray for each other
• Read Christian books together, talk about sermons, and read the Bible together and discuss it
• Spur each other onto righteousness

 Step Three:
  Romance

• This only happens when Friendship and Fellowship are developing
• Essence of Pure Romance=pursuit
• Romance is not #1 priority, but it is so important
• They are a good thing and a gift from God, when God is confirming the wisdom of the relationship
• Men are to be the initiators in the romantic expression
• Do little things to say what’s in your heart
• Never let your Romantic Expressions express more commitment than you can say in words
• Don’t guard your heart so much that he/she pulls back thinking you are un-interested
