Not another singles book?! You’re right! It’s not. I guarantee you that this book will be different from any other book that you have ever read on singleness. Why? First, because it is written for singles by an actual single. I’ve read many a book about singleness written by people who aren’t actually single. Theoretically, this isn’t wrong, but in reality- it gets kind of annoying. I know I am not the only person that has been irritated by a married person telling me manage my single life. Mind you, that person was single before at some point, so their advice can actually be very useful. However, when you are in this place sometimes it can feel like someone in the life boat- telling you to keep swimming. Great advice-but As a single person, receiving advice from someone that’s married can sometimes feel like someone in a life boat is telling you to keep swimming! That’s what this book will give prayerfully give you-help into the boat-not necessarily into the ‘marriage’ boat but the ‘satisfied’ boat (or at least throw you a life jacket to make the journey a little easier).
Though singleness may not be your permanent address-it’s your current address! And unless you have gotten a revelation from the Lord-you don’t know how long you will be there. Might as well unpack your bags. Prayerfully by the end of this book, you will think of your singleness as a gift-and stop trying to get out of it-before you actually get into it.
