About the Book
Is singleness a gift? What about celibacy? If I long to marry, is there something wrong with me?
While many messages in the Church and Christian communities are promoting the 'gift of singleness', most single women long to marry and are wrestling with challenges and temptations that come with undesired singleness. Lots of women feel pressured to put a fake smile on a broken heart instead of being given tools and resources for dealing with their broken heart.
When a woman is afflicted, in singleness or in any season, how is she called to live and behave as a Christian in her suffering?
Sharing from her heart and personal experience, Hannah addresses several struggles single women face, including unfulfilled longings, contentment, grief and loss. In a society that talks so much about the gift of singleness, she is unafraid to wrestle through the unpopular idea that undesired singleness can be an affliction.
This book will encourage single women (and all women) to seek Christ in their suffering and find His heart for the suffering. God is not asking His children to fake it, pretend their affliction is wonderful, or hide their feelings from Him- He is inviting them to come to Him.
From that position, Hannah offers Biblical truth, encouragement and practical suggestions for how to walk through hard and unwanted seasons as a Believer!
