God, Singleness, & Marriage: How the Bible gives purpose and direction to singles

By Ben Khazraee

Unmarried Christian adults have much potential for Kingdom service and joy in Christ. Unfortunately, many miss the opportunities they have for service because they fail to see how Christ has redeemed singleness and given it purpose. Others miss out on joy because they fail to trust God or don't resist temptations towards discontentment, envy, and worldliness. This book aims to help single men and women live as fruitful and content servants of Christ. It also gives direction for singles who desire marriage as they look for a spouse.The book is divided into three sections1. Singleness Redeemed: How the Bible gives purpose and hope to singlesThis section contains a biblical theology of singleness, a look at the "gift" of singleness in 1 Corinthians 7, and an application of the doctrine of God to singleness.2. Dangers of the Single Season: Keeping watch on your soulThis section covers the dangers of discontentment, envy, pride, worldliness, fear, and failing to use time well.3. Living in the Single Season: Honoring God as a single personThis section covers how to live and grow as a godly man or woman as well as how those who desire marriage might apply biblical principles in seeking a spouse.WHAT SETS THIS APART?There are a lot of books on singleness, dating, and marriage. So, what sets this one apart? 1. This book is a unique combination of theology and practice. It has practical advice, but it is grounded in theology. 2. This book aims at men AND women and seeks to help them grow in godliness and to encourage them both.
