OverviewThe church needs to do a better job of speaking theologically to single Christians. Challenging prevailing evangelical assumptions about ""the problem"" of singleness, this book explains why the church needs single people and offers a contemporary theology of singleness relevant to all members of the church. Drawing on the examples of three important figures from the history of Christianity, the book helps today's church form a vision of life in the kingdom of God that is as theologically significant for single people as it is for those who are married.
