This past week, I gave at talk to the Goretti Group entitled “Is there life before marriage?”<\/a> In today’s episode, Nessa and talk about some of the issues I raised in that talk. Do some people derive their self-worth from their Facebook “Relationship Status”? What are some common misunderstandings concerning\u00a0marriage? We then look at the subject friendships, the first area which I suggest deserves careful investment during your single years.<\/p>\n

* If you would like to listen to my original talk I gave to the Goretti Group, it is available here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

* The Bible passage I quote at the end\u00a0of the episode is this section from Sirach:<\/p>\n

Let your acquaintances be many,\u00a0but one in a thousand your confidant.<\/span>
\nWhen you gain a friend, first test him,\u00a0and be not too ready to trust him.<\/span>
\nFor one sort is a friend when it suits him,\u00a0but he will not be with you in time of distress.<\/span>
\n\u2026<\/span>
\nA faithful friend is a sturdy shelter;\u00a0he who finds one finds a treasure.<\/span>
\nA faithful friend is beyond price,\u00a0no sum can balance his worth.<\/span>
\nA faithful friend is a life-saving remedy,\u00a0such as he who fears God finds;<\/span>
\nFor he who fears God behaves accordingly,\u00a0and his friend will be like himself.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 Sirach 6:6-17<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
