Summary

Does God want me to be single forever? How do I know whether or not I have the "gift" of singleness? How do I hold on to hope when the future seems so unknown and so unclear? So many people are struggling with these questions as they look ahead at an unknown future and wonder whether or not God has marriage in their horizon. Am I Going To Be Single Forever? There are so many things in life where we just don't know what God has planned. But there are some truths and promises that can keep you grounded and hopeful while you wait. This episode of the Love + Relationships Podcast is an important one and one that is really close to my heart with all the waiting I have done in my life - and the waiting I continue to do in so many other areas of my life. I hope and pray that this episode will leave you encouraged as we collectively learn to trust God with the unknowns in life. Want to be on the Love + Relationships Podcast?
