He said the book’s publisher has agreed to stop reprinting it, along with two other related books, after the copies in its inventory are gone. “I now think dating can be a healthy part of a person developing relationally and learning the qualities that matter most in a partner.” “I know this apology doesn’t change anything for you and it’s coming too late, but I want you to hear that I regret any way that my ideas restricted you, hurt you, or gave you a less-than-biblical view of yourself, your sexuality, your relationships, and God,” he wrote. Joshua Harris wrote in a statement on his website that he no longer agrees with the central premise of “I Kissed Dating Goodbye” - that Christians shouldn’t date unless they’re ready for marriage - and apologized to those who found it harmful. The author of a seminal evangelical Christian book on dating doesn’t want to see it on shelves anymore.
