-------
So much of the contemporary conversation about Christian singleness makes it an either/or matter. Either someone is single by choice or single by circumstance. Either they've intentionally set out to pursue singleness as a lifelong "calling" or their singleness is considered accidental. But how do we think about this in light of the truth that we have a sovereign God who, 'in all things works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose?' (Rom 8:28).
- Dani Treweek explores how we can recognise and avoid the either/or trap of singleness.
- Jordan Thyer helps us think about singleness and God's providence.
- Rory Shiner helps us to understand what it means to live in the situation we were called from 1 Cor 7:17-24
