Many singles are often overlooked or marginalized in our Christian culture and churches, but this isn't how God sees them. He places a very high value on His singles, and we should too.
Taking truths from 1 Corinthians 7, Dr. Evans shares three vital principles for singles: How to wait on the Lord and his timing and direction, how to work for God and experience the satisfaction of fulfilling your personal calling in life, and what it means to be wedded in the Lord, whether that is through an eventual marriage or through your personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Dr. Evans writes to a variety of types of singles, the:
- Decidedly single
- Never married
- Divorced
- Separated
- Widowed
- Single parent
In this hope-filled and popular title, Dr. Tony Evans encourages us to embrace the often unheard biblically-based truth about singlehood: Being single is more desirable for a Christian than being married!
