Is singleness a gift or a trial? Should I keep asking God to give me a significant other, or am I not resting in him by continually asking? If you’re single, it’s likely that you’ve wrestled with questions like these. If you’re not single, it’s easy to overlook the struggles of those who are. Singleness is one of those topics that comes loaded with opinions. Culture treats it like a temporary problem to overcome, the church sometimes treats it like a waiting room for marriage, and your own thoughts can bounce back and forth between hope and frustration. In this compassionate episode of our ongoing series, How to Handle Life, Austin Conner takes a different approach. Instead of asking how to get out of singleness, he’ll talk about how to navigate it well right where you are. He’ll be sharing 5 practical ways to approach singleness with honesty, courage, and faith. Before you assume this conversation only applies if you’re currently single, don’t tune out just yet. Many people move in and out of seasons of singleness over the course of their lives. As you listen, you’ll get perspective and wisdom that will help you hold the multi-faceted experience of being single while simultaneously loving, following, and trusting Jesus.
