Pimp My Ride

A few years ago, there was a show called “Pimp My Ride.” The show was about these guys that would take your average automobile, and turn it into an original masterpiece of beauty and artistry. Your car would truly become one of a kind.

In dating relationships, most people settle for the average person that sort of measures up to their standards, if they even have any other than physical criteria. If you compare a dating relationship to a car, God doesn’t want us to settle for the average, cheap car. He wants us to have a Ferrari. He wants us to have the best spouse available! Who you choose to marry is the 2nd most important decision we will ever make, the first being our choice to serve Christ or not.don’t settle for a Ford when God wants you to have a Ferrari.

Unfortunately, far too many people settle for the Ford. They make the choice based on looks, they go too far physically, they don’t truly get to know the person before giving their heart and emotions away. They don’t seek the wisdom and advice of their parents, leaders in their life, pastors, etc. They don’t seek God for His will regarding their relationship. They don’t wait until they are ready to actually take the relationship to the next level.

Our goal is that teenagers and young adults would make the best decisions in regard to their dating choice. There is so much heart break and hurt over relationships when it’s not done correctly. We want to avoid as much of that as possible. We had a tremendous discussion each week as well as the Guys Only/Girls Only C9 groups.
