Passion and Purity: Learning to Bring Your Love Life Under Christ's Control by Elisabeth Elliot

people who want a skewed, fundamental view of dating and marriage
It was ok until a little way through. I remember finally just throwing the book across the room because I couldn't handle it anymore. At one point she started to paint love and companionship as an obligatory act of obedience to God and if you happen to end up with someone you're not attracted to, etc. well then...deal with it thats just God's plan for your life. She actually says at one point in response to a woman who wrote to her saying that she wanted to get married but didnt want to be with someone she didnt find attractive, that "someone has to marry the ugly people." It was just off...
