Reflecting our consumer culture, many Christians are church shoppers and hoppers. Is this God's will for our communities and our lives? Aware of the hang-ups and blemishes that inhibit many from commitment to a local church, Harris recalls believers to see the church as God sees her: a radiant bride whom he loves and cherishes. Despite our predisposition against commitment, the church remains the community of God's people that God so loved as to sacrifice his only Son.

Stop Dating reads like a well-crafted sermon, communicating powerfully God's passion for his church and effectively inviting the reader to embrace that same passion through commitment to a local congregation. Among the captivating stories that knit the book together, the most impressive is Harris' own recent journey. Initially indifferent towards local church commitment, he rode the conference circuit on the popularity of his books on dating and courtship. Now, Harris serves as senior pastor of a congregation entrusted to him by his predecessor, C.J. Mahaney. A timely book for the present time.
