SINGLED OUT<br />
We live in a culture focused on couples.<br />
Chances are, if you’ve been a single<br />
adult you’ve faced your share of<br />
well-meaning questions (“Would you<br />
like to meet my nephew? He’s just wonderful”),<br />
advice (“You’ve just got to put<br />
yourself out there!”), and “encouragement”<br />
(“Are you being too picky?”). It’s<br />
assumed that you’re in a relationship,<br />
and if you’re not, that you desperately<br />
want to be and<br />
just can’t be happy<br />
without a significant<br />
other.<br />
However, one is<br />
a whole number.<br />
Paul was single,<br />
Jesus was single, and it’s okay if you<br />
are, too. In fact, whether you’ve never<br />
married, you’re divorced, or you’re<br />
widowed, God can use this life stage<br />
to do great things in you and through<br />
you. This week we’ll learn more about<br />
how to live life to the full as a single<br />
adult, and how the rest of us can be an<br />
encouragement to the singles in our<br />
church.<br />
