NO ONE SEEMS TO BE IN THE DATING SCENE AT CHURCH!! What is up with that?
Your text goes here
I mean seriously, hardly anyone is dating anyone at all. Dating as a whole seems to be like an unspoken thing in church. Everyone seems to be avoiding the topic of dating and relationships. Why is that so? You would expect that, with the kind of principles and values the church teaches, the church should be one of the best places in setting a safe and healthy environment for true, genuine relationships to grow.Maybe its the whole "commitment" thing that everyone is afraid of. What are your views??

But principally? There's not enough sermons on Love ... (too much focus on the charisma aspect of the early primitive church ... [St Paul and the Acts of the Apostles ... [speaking in tongues etc ... [whereas they should read the Epistles of St John the Evangelist more ... "Little Children. Love one another." ... That was his message ... and he learned that one from leaning his head on the Divine / Sacred Heart ... (When St John was a 90 year old man? ... He only ever said one thing ... "Little children, Love one another." ... People wanted a flowery sermon ... and complained ... He told them ... that was all that needed to be said ... and that it was a summary of everything he had learned from Christ Himself ...
