I Am A Tool

Addressed in the book: singleness, sexual purity, breaking up with grace and truth, healthy communication habits, do’s and don’t of dating, friendship, technology, encouraging the opposite sex, asking someone out, and central to it all—the Lordship of Christ. This is an insightful, humorous, and useful book to help both men and women who love Jesus to drop-kick the common “business as usual” practices of relationship and dating. It is a biblical call to something greater and healthier in our dating lives, while simultaneously a challenge for us to seek connections with others in the context of service, communication, friendship, and patience. I Am a Tool will meet you where you’re at and help you move forward in a direction that honors Jesus.
