Publisher's Description

The control freak. The angry man. The lazy guy. The unteachable guy. The promiscuous man. The unbeliever. The lone ranger. The unchurched guy. The new convert. The commitment-phobe.

For any woman who has struggled with failed relationships, this may seem like a familiar list. These are the men your friends and family have in mind when they think, “she’s with the wrong guy.” And while the reasons women choose these types of men are complicated and varied, ultimately, they will all let you down.

In She’s Got the Wrong Guy, Deepak Reju offers a different kind of dating book, discussing the types of guys women should not marry and offering biblical reasons why they aren’t suitable spouses. Writing from his years of experience as a pastor and counselor, Reju shares with women his perspective on how to assess a relationship’s strengths from the beginning, how to identify possible pitfalls, and how to have the courage to wait for a relationship that will be a blessing for both of you. Using stories that single women can relate to and highlighting contemporary issues in the modern world of dating, Reju gives readers clear, biblical direction on how to have positive, life-giving relationships with members of the opposite sex.

With a strong, Christ-centered focus, women will better understand why they “settle” for less than what God intends for their romantic relationships and learn to put their hopes and find their happiness in Jesus, not marriage.

  • Unlike typical dating books, this book highlights the type of men Christian women should not marry.
  • Details ten profiles of the wrong type of guys, and offers biblical reasons why they are not suitable spouses.
  • Includes stories that single women can relate to, as well as highlights contemporary issues in the modern dating world.
  • Written by a pastor and counselor with years of experience in addressing these issues and seeing the harm that unhealthy romantic relationships can do.
  • A strong, Christ-centered focused that helps readers put their hope in Jesus, not marriage.

What Makes the Product Unique? Not your typical dating guide, She’s Got the Wrong Guy takes the opposite perspective of most relationship books and focuses on the men women shouldn’t marry, rather than those they should. Deepak Reju details ten profiles of men profiles—the control freak; the angry man; the lazy guy; the unteachable guy; the promiscuous man; the unbeliever; the lone ranger; the unchurched guy; the new convert; and the commitment-phobe to show single Christian women who they should avoid. For many, it’s a very familiar list! Using relatable stories and highlighting contemporary issues, women will not only find a greater understanding of who—and who not!—to marry, but also a greater trust and love for Christ.

What Is the Product for? With detailed descriptions of ten types of men Christian women should not marry, She’s Got the Wrong Guy is not your typical book about dating. Drawing from his years of experience as a pastor and counselor, Deepak Reju shares with women his perspective on how to assess a relationship’s strengths from the beginning, how to identify possible pitfalls, and how to have the courage to wait for a relationship that will be a blessing for both of you. In the 21st century, where dating can be more confusing and challenging for women than ever, readers will learn their starting point needs to be a clear dependence on Christ, and that hope and happiness are found in Jesus, not marriage.

Who Is the Product for? To be a single woman in the 21st century is challenging, and to be a single Christian woman even more so. As old traditions about dating and marriage have fallen away, parents and grandparents didn’t face the same situations their daughters and granddaughters do, nor could they prepare them today’s complex and confusing dating world. It’s all-too-easy to lose sight of the gospel and to settle for less than what God intends for our romantic relationships. Using relatable stories and highlighting contemporary issues, She’s Got the Wrong Guy will not only help women understand why they pick guys who will only let them down, but also provide clear, biblical direction on how to have positive, life-giving relationships with members of the opposite sex.

Deepak Reju, MDiv, PhD, serves as the pastor of biblical counseling and families at Capitol Hill Baptist Church (CHBC) in Washington, DC, as well as president for the board of directors of the Biblical Counseling Coalition. He is the author of several books and articles, including On Guard: Preventing and Responding to Child Abuse at Church, She's Got the Wrong Guy: Why Smart Women Settle, Great Kings of the Bible: How Jesus Is Greater than Saul, David and Solomon, and The Pastor and Counseling.
