Standard

STANDARD The Manifesto of a Man in Pursuit of His Equal STANDARD is not a dating guide. It is a manifesto. In an age that sanctifies compromise and pathologizes conviction, one man refuses to negotiate what his heart recognizes as true. STANDARD articulates a prophetic declaration—desire aligned with the Eternal rather than molded by culture, corroded by fear, or accelerated by impatience. Through theological precision and unflinching honesty, Joël Mwindo Kamala traces the architecture of marriage as covenant, as strategic alignment, as shared destiny—never as convenience, never as negotiated settlement. This book delineates the contours of a union that justifies years of patient expectation: an alliance between equals capable of carrying together what neither could sustain alone. STANDARD will disturb those who have grown comfortable in compromise. It will confront those who mistake clarity for judgment, who confuse grace with the erasure of consequence, who equate patience with passivity. But for those who recognize their own unspoken convictions reflected in these pages—those who have always known their standards were not barriers but protections—this manifesto offers rare validation: you are not excessive. You are aligned. And what God aligns, He accomplishes. Written as testimony and prophecy, as declaration and love letter composed before its recipient arrives, STANDARD demonstrates that articulation precedes recognition, that waiting produces transformation not deprivation, that declaring before obtaining constitutes faith rather than presumption. For those who refuse to apologize for knowing what they seek. For believers who understand that some standards serve destiny rather than ego. For the woman who will one day read these words and recognize: he was waiting specifically for me. This is STANDARD.
