Publisher, Multnomah Publishers (October 2000)

I Kissed Dating Goodbye shocked the publishing world in 1997 with its meteoric rise to the top of bestseller lists. Teens wanted more than dating rules- they wanted an intentional, God-pleasing game plan. In this dynamic sequel, newlyweds Joshua and Shannon Harris deliver an inspiring and practical illustration of how this healthy, joyous alternative to recreational dating-biblical courtship-worked for them. Boy Meets Girl helps listeners understand how to go about pursuing the possibility of marriage with someone they may be serious about. It's the natural follow-up to the author's blockbuster book on teen dating!

A Special Message from Joshua Harris, August 14, 2000:

A Second Try

Oops, I did it again. I wrote another book on relationships. Actually, I just finished writing my second book entitled Boy Meets Girl. If you haven't guessed, it's a follow-up to I Kissed Dating Goodbye. This book looks at how Christians can glorify God as they pursue marriage.

If you're one of the folks who read and wrote a review my last book here on Amazon (good or bad), I'm really honored you would take the time to read it and share your thoughts. I hope you enjoy this new book. And to all the people who hated my last book, I hope you hate Boy Meets Girl a little less. (smile)

It seems like it's taken forever to write. Whew! It's been an entire year and I blew two deadlines. But the end result is something I am very excited about. By God's grace I think it's a stronger book than the last one.

Let me share a "preview" of some of my favorite chapters:

2. WHY DATING VERSUS COURTSHIP ISN'T THE POINT - Getting past a debate over terms and back to what really matters

3. ROMANCE & WISDOM: A MATCH MADE IN HEAVEN - How to keep your relationship patient, purposeful and rooted in reality

5. MORE THAN FRIENDS, LESS THAN LOVERS - How to grow and guard in friendship, fellowship and romance

8. trUE LOVE DOESN'T JUST WAIT - How to be sexually pure when you're passionately in love

There are a total of twelve chapters in the book. While I share a little of my own story of how I met and married my bride Shannon, the book is much more than merely our experience. I think the best part of the book is the fact that it tells the stories of many different couples. There are a few stories in here that are simply amazing. I was so blessed to get to interview different people and share their stories.

Anyway, the audiobook will be out in October. I hope you enjoy it and I look forward to seeing your reviews. My biggest prayer is that regardless of what you think of the book, you'll be more amazed at the awesomeness of the God who made human love possible. What a Creator! What a Savior! The goodness of romantic love between a man and woman should lead us to worship and adore Him more.

God bless! Joshua
