Description:
A single woman myself, I invite everyone to celebrate the integral part single women play in the body of Christ. With God at the head of the table, we will seek wisdom and examples from His Word to guide us as we each pull up a chair and join the conversation. Love—for God and for others—is our one single reason to engage in this open dialogue through authentic relationships. Drawing from single women’s stories, we will · rejoice with those who are “single and lovin’ it, mostly.” · learn how to support each other as single women, and what we can offer others. · allow God to redefine the deepest desires of our heart. · avoid the encaging traps that divide us. · respond to others in ways that lead to contentment. · share strategies for how to live out love in a congregational context. It is my prayer that through the conversations facilitated by this book, single and single-again women will feel affirmed, understood, and represented. Thank you for joining in the conversation as we live out love: our one single reason. Duration - 8h 40m. Author - Michelle J. Goff. Narrator - Michelle J. Goff.
