Outdated: Find Love That Lasts When Dating Has Changed

Read/listened to this because it was free on audible and I was curious to hear the all famous JP talk about one of his most popular topics with young adults.
I could write an essay on things I disliked about this book but I’ll keep it short and sweet - unlike this book. 30% was superfluous fluff that could burn like chaff in the wind and not detract from the book at all, 40% was common sense that you could easily have learned from talking to the old and new married couples in your congregation, 5% scripture/Jesus talk which was incredibly welcomed, and 25% was the coddling of the evangelical-American mind hyper fixated on getting hitched. Sorry, not sorry.
Disclaimer - I’ve never been JP’s biggest fan and I went into this book with a lot of presuppositions which is admittedly unfair to him as an author. But still.. just wow.. I do not understand the hype around him.
