You Can’t Marry Mr. Darcy!
Mr. Darcy. He is every woman’s ideal man, and every girl swoons at the mention of his name. But as perfect as Mr. Darcy is, he has one undeniable flaw: You can’t MARRY Mr. Darcy.
Waiting for Life to Start
Just like getting a pink bunny suit for Christmas, the gift of singleness can leave you feeling disappointed, awkward, and like everyone’s staring at you! But you don’t have to keep waiting for life to start!
Calling All the Single Ladies!
Status: Single. That’s what my Facebook profile says. Like a large banner stamped across my homepage: I. AM. SINGLE. I can’t help but entertain the idea that something is missing from my life.
She Does Him Good (even before she meets him)
God has some great big plans that so far has not included a wedding ring for me. These are my thoughts as I have continued to reflect on Proverbs 31.12 “She does him good, and not harm, all the days of her life.”
Living with a Hope Deferred – Part 3
My favorite moment was when Dr. Dobson asked me how I handle going out in public without a date. I had totally forgotten he asked me this when we recorded these programs last April. So as I stood in the kitchen listening to this show, I found myself pausing with my coffee spoon in mid-air, wondering what I said in response.
Living With a Hope Deferred – Part 2
Today is a continuation of yesterday’s conversation with Dr.Dobson. Candice Watters and I discuss some of the challenges to trusting God that single women face (such as childlessness, which is not exclusive to single women)… His faithfulness is what I have to reassure anyone who is panicking that they might end up in a similar position.
Living with a Hope Deferred – Part 1
Here’s a link to the first of a three-part Focus on the Family radio series that I recorded with my friend and fellow author, Candice Watters, earlier this year. It is titled, “Singleness: Living With a Hope Deferred.” As the author of two books about marriage and family and numerous articles for single women, Candice [...]
Radiant Singleness – Krissy’s Story
Even if He never brought a man into her life, Krissy resolved to remain fully set-apart for Him. Jesus Christ, not the hope of an earthly romance, was the focus of her existence and the source of her fulfillment. Even without an earthly love story, her Heavenly Prince was more than enough. She wasn’t living for guys. She wasn’t living for an earthly romance. She was living for Him.
Surplus of Singles
Lots of verbiage fills corners of the Internet and entire rows of bookstores about the “pesky problem” of an excess number of single adults these days. In this article, Carolyn McCulley addresses the question of the phenomenon of single adults in our churches.
Home, Sweet Mission Field (for singles)
If you and/or your local church are looking for ways to evangelize, opening your home is one of the best methods for reaching the lost. Most of us, however, are not using our homes as we should to reach our neighbors, friends, and relatives. Tragically, many of us don’t even know our neighbors. Yet through hospitality, we can meet our neighbors and be a lighthouse in spiritually dark neighborhoods.
Singular Hospitality
Lydia was a single woman, head of a household consisting mainly of servants. It was probably in her house that the first church in Philippi began to meet. Perhaps it was in her house that the church gathered to take up a collection to send Paul as he endured house arrest in Rome…It’s hard to know what precisely happened in Lydia’s home, except for this fact — her first act of ministry as a believer was to offer her home and hospitality.
