Please tell me if this is in the wrong section... This place is so massive that it's hard to tell!
I'm a 16-(almost 17-) year old Christian currently in a long-distance relationship. My boyfriend lives an hour away, and since we're both in band, we sometimes see each other at band functions. We've been going out for almost four months now and we've been able to see each other at least every two weeks. We also try to talk everyday online. Both our families greatly approve.
When I first met him at camp, the topic of religion came up and I was interested in what he was. He said he was Christian and left it at that. About three months after we started going out, I learned that he's not really sure what he believes. He believes in God, and he thinks Jesus died on the cross for our sins, but he's not sure. He says he's not very trusting, so he hasn't dedicated himself to anything. I shared my faith with him and told him I wished he believed what I did. He said he'd look into it for me. However, he said religion isn't very important to him, which scares me. I know his mother is a Christian, but it doesn't seem like their family is extremely devoted. To be perfectly honest, I'm not the most devoted Christian either... but I'm trying to improve.
Anyway, my question is do you think I should continue with this relationship? While he may not be a Christian yet (I hope to continue helping him toward that), he has Christian morals and we both set boundaries at the very beginning of our relationship. I truly do love him, and I believe he truly loves me as well. I know most high school relationships don't last, and I'll try to accept it if it's God's will that this relationship should not last. However, my boyfriend doesn't do anything to make me stumble in my relationship with Christ and I really do think I could help lead him to the Truth. So what do you think? Should I continue with the relationship and try to lead my boyfriend to Christ, or should I end it and pray someone leads him there eventually? I'm very dedicated to this cause...
If you could please pray about this situation for me, I'd greatly appreciate it.
