Harris has felt pressure from all sides to do or say something. Meanwhile, others applaud his work and encourage him to stand his ground Some credit their marriage to principles they say they gleaned from his book, and indicate they plan to teach their children the same. Many online have called for Harris to apologize for what they believe was hurtful teaching. Some have lashed out at Harris directly for I Kissed Dating Goodbye, and a few have set up websites dedicated to his victims. Through the connective platform of social media, Harris has been dealt a battering of online criticism from disenchanted Christians in recent years. I Kissed Dating Goodbye effectively “turned the Christian singles scene upside down” and continues to shape the consciousness of how Christians view singleness, dating, and the roadmap to marriage. The book became an international bestseller and catapulted its unsuspecting author, Joshua Harris, into the Christian spotlight. In 1997, a 21-year-old Christian single released a revolutionary book on dating.
Really interesting conversation on a book from almost 20 years ago that was very popular in the Christian Church world.
