Stand Up and Go To Your Cornerby Kris Swiatocho, Director, The Singles Network Ministries
I absolutely love icebreakers and warm-up exercises that help everyone get to know each other better! While not everyone might enjoy them at first, most people find that they really help break the ice during group activities. Once that happens, it’s so fun to discover what we have in common—whether it's where we're from, being a single parent, loving a certain sport, or working in similar fields. Those shared interests often lead to great conversations and even the formation of friendships. And that's really what it's all about in any ministry: building friendships for the Kingdom! Read More
Intentional Relationships: Accept Her Past or Run From It?by Kris Swiatocho, Director
QUESTION: I am in a relationship with a Christian girl who is committed to putting God first and seeking His will for our future together. However, she has a challenging past that includes promiscuity and abuse, which has resulted in her having a permanent STD. While I feel conflicted about continuing the relationship, I also recognize that if she’s truly repentant, there is potential for growth and healing for both of us. Her past weighs heavily on my heart, but I want to focus on the person she has become. Should I embrace our time together and trust that God will guide us, or would it be wiser to part ways and seek a different relationship? Read More

Dear Son...A Message to All Father'sBy Gail Cawley Showalter, Author of Living, Learning, Loving
In southeast Texas, I’m known as the Old Bird with Feathers of Wisdom for Women and a Soft Spot for Single Moms. I am sharing this letter with all fathers, just as I shared it with my sons when their daughters were born.
Dear Son, I know you cherish your son and enjoy being his dad. Now, you have a precious and adorable baby girl. On this Father’s Day, please take your mother’s advice on raising a daughter.

LaborDaySingles.org Registration is now Open!Well Withinby Michelle Hipp
I love how God uses the simple things of this world to teach us valuable lessons about the truth found in His word. My husband and I recently looked at homes to buy. We walked through the property, commenting on all the things we appreciated: the open-concept design, the fireplace and accent wall, and even the cute barn door that led into the ensuite bathroom.
Cosmetically, the home was beautiful, but we still needed to do our due diligence and have it inspected by a licensed professional. Our inspection revealed what we couldn’t see. Under the home, in the dark crawl space, a hidden problem began to emerge. This problem, if left unaddressed, has the potential to affect the entire home. We were powerless to remedy what remained hidden. However, once it was brought to light, we had the power to repair the problem.

We all feel disappointed at times about where we are in life. We think we should have accomplished this or that by now, or maybe we're still trying to heal from past trauma or simply getting by. Our lives can feel pointless, leading us to believe there's no reason to try. Read More
