I recently got an encouraging letter in the mail. In it, the parents of a young man wrote,
Thought you would like to see pictures of fruit God has worked from your ministry. The first picture is of you and Micah when he was about 13 years old. He took your challenge, and with God's help didn't "date", although he already knew and "liked" Kimberly, he remained friends with her until they came back from a missions trip when he was 18. He went to her dad, who was discipling him, and declared his love and intent of marriage. The second picture is their marriage invitation for this past December, age 22 and 20 years old....What a blessing they have been to many....We thank God for His work in their hearts and lives.Micah and Kimberly, we wish you all the best in your new marriage and service to the Savior.

That is truly one of the coolest things I've seen in quite a while.
Soli Deo gloria, brother.
I saw this couple's wedding on TV... what a great testimony.
Ponyboy,your hair...your tuff,tuff hair
I do not know Kim and Micah well, but my sister was Kim's maid of honor - they seem to really love the Lord. Thank-you for posting this - for a mom of young children this is encouraging!!
Thank you for sharing this, Josh. Such stories always warm the heart of we teenagers who are committed to waiting for God's timing.
Even though I am already 19, my parents (who are also pastors) have made it clear that they do not want me to entertain courtship while I pursue studies abroad starting this September. It's been and will be a very great challenge to obey them in the Lord, trusting that God would write my love story in His time, within the guidelines my parents set.
Agreeing with principles is one thing, internalizing them is another. And real-life stories like these inspire me beyond all words can say. Please do continue to share the fruit of God's work in this area. I believe hundreds would be blessed through such testimonies.
Just another example of how God is continuing to work in ways unknown through your example bro! Thank you! God is good!
wow...this truly is a great blessing to my life...my cell group leader told me to read i kissed dating goodbye because i had started to like someone out of God's timing but to know this and to read about this story makes me so happy in the fact that he liked her but he waited until they were both ready for God's timing...im always learning
You never fail to make me inspired josh..from the stories that i read from your books and even here about all the miracles that God has made. I really do believe about God's timing..
