Bible study?

[SoldierofChrist]

Hey folks,

I was wondering if any of the dating/courting couples here study the Bible together weekly and, or, pray together. I think it's a great idea to either through e-mail or a weekly get-together to go through a book of the Bible or do a study together. I'm going to start this with my girlfriend soon, and am currently in the process of figuring out which book we should start with. I'm thinking 1+2 Corinthians.

Anyone else do this?

we pray together, and occasionally read scripture to each other and discuss it.

I enjoy doing that with her.

When he comes home, we are going to start up a bible study together.

Whenever my boyfriend and I get together we try and do devotions together...but sometimes we just dont get around to it. We have a book called "Devotions for Dating Couples" by Ben Young and Dr. Samuel Adams. It's a great book.

I think it's a great idea! It's away to get away from the secular dating mentality that tends to focus on the physical rather than the relational aspect of the relationship.

He likes to read to me.

I pray with my GF all the time and try and read the bible everyday thoguh it should happen more than it does. But we base our relationsip on the Lord in as many ways as possible.

1 Corinthians would be a really good book to start with as would Ephesians

Yeah, I think it's a really good idea, I just haven't know where to start as of yet, I plan on getting a devotion book for dating/courting couples, and using that cause I've never been real good about pickiing my own devotions, I just basically have been reading straight through the Bible for my devotion/quiet time, but I really want to start doing a Bible study with my girlfriend, I think it's a great way to focus your relationship on the Lord instead of being focused all on the physical stuff that really can get in the way of the true purity of a relationship. Just my 2 cents worth. God Bless

we pray together, and will share scripture as well.

we pray together all the time.
we USED to read Scripture together a lot more often, but we don't see each other as often as we used to (we used to go to the same school, but now he's an hour away) so we don't read the Word together as much as we should.
reading the Bible and praying together is the best thing in the world when you are in a committed relationship.
does anyone know of a good devotional for engaged/courting couples?

huh, sounds like everyone is in the same boat, don't really know anything good to read together!

me and my sig. other read bible together, talk about it, pray together. right now we're going through CS Lewis' screwtape letters. she's at another college, but we just set a time online to talk about it. its really good. throughout our relationship God has really grown us both through eachother, pretty amazing how He works.

lets hope someone does find a good devotional/study or something!
