Today on The Girl to Find Show, we are talking about how do you know if you have the gift of

singleness, and this is something that so many of you have asked us over the years. Some of you

hoping that maybe you have the gift because you're excited about it, but I would say more of you

asking us out of fear and dread because you're like, I don't want this gift. Do I have it? Do I not?

How do I know biblically what does God's words say about whether or not I have the gift of singleness?

And how can I find out the answer to my question? So today, we're going to unpack that. We're

going to dive in. We are each going to share our own journeys from singleness to marriage that

looked very different for each of us, the things that we wrestle with. We're going to dive into that,

and we are ultimately going to unpack that question and give you straightforward Biblical answers

to help you discern whether or not you have the gift of singleness.

What's up, sisterhood? It's Bethany and Kristen. Yes, we are sisters and we are the founders of

girl-defined ministries and welcome to the video. If you're watching it, if you just listen to audio,

I want you to know that there is a complete video version of the podcast so you can see us

actually talking this fast in real life. I am so excited. I love that we can see you now. Well,

you can see us. You can see us, but it just feels more like we're hanging out. We're connecting.

Okay, so this question about singleness, do I have the gift of singleness? Is something that we

have been asked many times over the years? We've had people comment, like, I've scoured your books

for answers, and I just want more. I want to understand what the Bible says, and you know,

you'll have some people tell you, like, well, yours are just embrace it. Like, singleness is wonderful,

and you can serve God more fully and deepen your heart. You're like, easy for you to say,

you're married. Yes. I think by sharing each of our stories that will really encourage you

and help you, and I really think by the end of this conversation, you're going to have so much hope,
