About

Dating and marriage. Financial planning. Career choices. Family relationships. Friendships with the opposite sex. Christian singles struggle with these issues every day. As a single woman herself, Mary Whelchel is familiar with the pitfalls that ensnare single people. She understands how frustrations, desires, and longings can lead to mistakes and offers practical, biblical solutions.

 

 

This book is written for any Christian single, writes Whelchel, however you have been ushered into that category. In some cases it touches on areas that are common to almost all of us, and in others it speaks to more specific areas for never-marrieds or divorced, or certain age groups.

 

Singles and leaders of singles' ministries will find this an affirmative guide. Revised and expanded, this edition contains new material on marriage and male/female issues and a new chapter on dating. Discussion questions for each chapter have also been added, making this an excellent resource for groups.

 

Revell published the first edition in 1989.
