About this audiobook

Bestselling author Gary Thomas transforms the way you look at romantic relationships. His unique perspective on dating will prepare you for a satisfying, spiritually enriching marriage.   In the revised edition of his hit book  The Sacred Search,  Gary Thomas helps single people of all ages make wise marital choices by rethinking what basis those choices should be made on.   You will be encouraged to think beyond finding your "soul mate" and instead adopt a more biblical search for a "sole mate"—someone who will walk with you on your spiritual journey.   Thomas asks, What if we focused on  why we should get married more than on  who to marry? What if being "in love" isn't a good enough reason to get married? And most of all, what if God designed marriage to make us  holy more than to make us  happy?   The Sacred Search casts a vision for building a relationship around shared spiritual mission—and making marriage with eternity at its heart.
