How Would You Know by Single Parent Director, Holly Crain

women
I made a commitment to myself to regularly be a part of the life of the church. I was reading my Bible and memorizing occasionally, and journaling my prayers. I was astounded at the spiritual growth I was seeing in myself. But one thing was nagging at me that I just couldn't shake. I feared I would make an unintentionally wrong decision...personally or financially. Read More

Drumming to a Different Beat by Kris Swiatocho

Drummer
Many years ago, I struggled with being a people pleaser. Often my value, my identity was wrapped up in what others thought. And while we should want to do our best and serve others, it can’t be out of a personal need to gain value. It has to be out of the overflowing love of the Lord. Read More​

Labor Day Retreat Ad

He Says He Believes in God, Sort of... by Kris Swiatocho

Picture
​QUESTION: I am a middle-aged, single lady who has never been married or in a serious relationship. While I occasionally meet Christian guys, I seem to be drawn to those who are not Christian, and I know this is wrong. Sometimes they tell me they believe in God, but when I ask them to go to church with me, they give me all kinds of excuses. Read More

What Singleness Reveals about the World to Come

Picture
With rates of long-term singleness on the rise across Western societies, evangelicals are increasingly reflecting on the challenges this poses for the church. In The Meaning of Singleness: Retrieving an Eschatological Vision for the Contemporary Church, Danielle Treweek reframes the discussion around the Bible’s picture of the creation to come. Author and theologian Barry Danylak spoke with Treweek—founding director of the Single Minded ministry and an Anglican deacon in Sydney—about cultivating a robustly theological understanding of singleness.

Unexpecting the Unexpected

Life is full of things we do not expect. The list goes on, from items breaking down to sickness and death, job changes, and relationships falling apart. So, it’s not when something breaks, getting laid off or using all your savings to buy a new car; it’s how we handle the unexpected. It is our attitude, behavior, and next course of action. Do we trust God, or are we still trusting in ourselves? Listen as Kris shares about a few others who were unexpecting the unexpected too. Exodus 14:31 And when the Israelites saw the mighty hand of the Lord displayed against the Egyptians, the people feared the Lord and put their trust in him and in Moses his servant.

“Jesus was a single adult and so are over 50% of the adults in the U.S. today. This is a population segment that calls for special attention and ministry, but has often gone unnoticed by the church. Kris Swiatocho has dedicated her life to reaching single adults for Christ and building them into multiplying disciples of Christ. She is a great communicator and organizer of singles ministry. I commend her to any church or group who is seeking to reach the many singles in our culture today.”
—Dr. Steve Harris, Strategy Coordinator for the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina.
