I Kissed Courtship Goodbye with Josh Harris | Friends With Davey
Manage episode 393170019 series 3510482
Davey Jackson talks to Josh Harris about his infamous book, "I Kissed Dating Goodbye" and the profound impact it had on Christians all over the world.
"I Kissed Dating Goodbye" was the definitive guide to dating and relationships in the fundamental Christian community when it was published in 1997. It outlined "courtship" as a godly alternative to secular dating and was widely embraced by members of the Shiny Happy People cult.
While the book's popularity was celebrated as a success for proponents of purity culture, Josh began to see inconsistencies in some of the Biblical teachings he had been promoting. Josh was faced with a drastic decision that would alter the course of his life and make waves throughout the evangelical community.
