Hi Debi/Shalom – I have read many books and attended seminars on dating, courtship eyc. I lay in my bed yesterday and keyed into YouTube biblical dating and came across the discussions Debi had with Kirsten. It was an eye-opener to say the least.

I live in England, 32 year old femalepreparing for marriage. Since listening to the conversations I have purchased the book (kindle version). I am a Christian and serving in my local church. From time to time I attend another church when am not serving and there’s no activity in my church). I have since noticed a young man who for all intents and purposes loves the Lord. He isinterested in me and although I did not notice over a year I now do and I am equally interested to get to know him. The issue is that there seems to be an unspoken protocol in that church marry from within the church and I think this is making it difficult for him to approach me or to say anything. What do you suggest in this situation?
