0:00.0	Welcome to 10 minute Bible Talks, where we connect the Bible to your life and the time it takes to get to work.
0:11.5	I'm Patrick Miller. And I'm Keith Simon. Right now we're
0:14.9	answering questions that you're asking. A lot of these are coming from our
0:18.4	Facebook page so if you follow 10 minute Bible talks on Facebook you can ask questions that you want us to answer or vote
0:26.2	on questions that other people are asking.
0:30.7	Today we're going to try to answer a question that was posed to us on our Facebook page
0:35.2	and that is will you ever find the one? Now how do I get these questions that make me out to be the bad guy, the anti-romantic?
0:46.8	I know how I get them and that is that Patrick assigns them to me.
0:51.2	He's the one who divvies out the questions and I think he sets me up to be hated by people.
0:57.0	Because I would say this, if what you mean is, will I find the one, the one person who knows me who meets my needs
1:05.8	who loves those things about me that drive everyone else crazy the one person who
1:11.2	really gets me who doesn't demand too much from me who challenges me in just the right way
1:17.8	If that's what we mean by the one the one who will complete me the one who will be my soul mate well the answer is no no you won't find the one because the one doesn't exist.
1:34.2	Let's just think about this together for a little bit.
1:36.8	If it were true that finding the right person
1:39.1	was the key to a happy marriage,
1:41.3	then we should be in a glorious age of marriage because people have
1:44.9	never had more opportunity to find Mr or Mrs. Wright. I mean think of all the
1:50.7	dating apps that are available and how we can scroll through people and find out so much about them before we'd ever have to take the step to meet them.
1:58.4	We have more choices than ever. And yet anyone who's paying attention would say we're not in a
2:03.7	glorious age of marriage. Dating apps have not helped us develop long strong
2:09.6	lasting marriages. Think about the television show The Bachelor, The Bachelorette, or all of its spinoffs.
