Sandy's On a Dating Panel Tonight!

This is our second time posting so that is pretty exciting - at some point i plan to get over it (the fact that we finally have a family/ministry blog) but today is not that day.  I'm not quite ready for the newness to wear off.

Anyway, the reason i'm writing is for a quick update and request prayer.  Today is the last day of our coaching trip and it has been really great (check back Saturday for pictures - i forgot the camera cord to download the pics).  We spent the first half of our trip at Clemson and Lander.  Now we are at USC. We went out sharing the gospel there yesterday and we head back to campus this evening.  I really need your prayer because I've been asked to be on a dating panel that a sorority is sponsoring tonight - craziness. 
So pray
- I would be well rested (i'm a bit tired)
- I would use wisdom in my words

- I would be filled with the Holy Spirit
- If you think of me at around 7:22pm (eastern time) - just pray 
Questions:  What are some issues u think will be brought up? What are major things you think i should make a point to say?  Any suggestions or advice?

  2. My thoughts on things to make a point are "Godly Dating"...making sure you have an accountability partner, making sure you and your significant other have set boundaries and have shared them with others so they can hold you accountable. Know how far is to far...like ex: we can't even kiss because we know it will lead to too much..etc. Don't ignore "red flags" if you feel there are red flags in your relationship..seek council and pray. Simple: Don't date someone you wouldn't marry. :) These are all things I took from college dating.

    Praying for you girl! You are gonna do great. Wish I could hear it! Praying at 7:22!!

  3. I would mention the worlds view of dating and how it doesn't help a marriage in the long run, i.e. date as many people as you can, so you can find out what you like, or you're too young to settle down, or no one stays married anymore so whats the point, or we should live together to see if we're compatible, or do whatever else together to see if this can be long term, marriage is boring...etc. praying for ya...
