Living Whole Without A Better Half
$5.97Add to cartThere are more singles in-and out of-the church today than ever before. Wendy Widder knows the struggles of being single from the inside out, and she has something to say, both to her fellow never-marrieds and to the church that often makes them feel like second-class citizens.
While there is no shortage of books about singlehood on the market, Widder’s approach is markedly different. Living Whole Without a Better Half is one of the few that doesn’t offer a solution or a kind of “get married quick” scheme to solve the single “problem.” Instead, Widder shows readers how to embrace singleness as an abundant life and a God-given gift, not as an unfortunate stage they should move past as quickly as possible. By examining the lives of biblical heroes such as Abraham, Moses, and Jacob, she reveals that trying to bargain with God to follow our plans and timing often keeps us from appreciating the opportunities he places in our path.
Widder makes her case with wit and a wry humor that readers will appreciate and come back to again and again. Now with updated statistics, and a new preface, Living Whole Without a Better Half includes study questions that make it a great Bible study or small group resource. Widder also updates readers on her journey of singleness and refines her theology and application to reflect her twelve years of graduate school in biblical studies.

Dear God Send Me A Soul Mate
$10.99Add to cartSearching for your dream mate doesn’t have to be a nightmare, but it can be if you don’t have a plan. Too many people refuse to plan for anything romantic. “It will just happen,” or “someday my prince will come” are common expressions from singles, young and old alike, who cling tightly to childish fantasies that true love will just float down from the heavens. With sexual disease, divorce, and serial dating on the rise, it’s obvious that what singles have been doing just doesn’t work! In Dear God, Send Me a Soul Mate, the author shares the hope of a new plan based on old wisdom: Thousands of years ago a faithful servant, searching for a spouse for his master’s son, uttered a prayer for God’s leading and favor in searching for the for the perfect mate. The wise slave followed eight specific steps and God blessed him and richly rewarded his search. Those same eight steps, ancient dating secrets from the Old Testament story of Isaac and Rebekah, are outlined in this book to help singles of all ages find true love today. Even though today’s singles drive sports cars instead of camels, human nature hasn’t changed – everyone dreams of finding the perfect mate. God is still in the love business, and he wants to take you from heartbreak to happily ever after. This book will provide you those principles to help you find the perfect mate – your soul mate.
