Single

I Corinthians 7

Regardless of your relationship status, your role is always to glorify God.

Discussing singleness is difficult because...

The one who is speaking about being single is not single.

People who are single have vastly different views about being single.

Being single is difficult. Loneliness, sexual temptation, and financial/domestic issues are often real struggles for singles.

I Corinthians 7

Glorifying God as a Single

Be content in your relationship with Christ.

Neither marriage nor singleness can satisfy your heart. Only Christ can do that!

Singleness is portrayed as honorable in scripture.

Contentment doesn’t mean you do not desire or pursue marriage.

Don’t settle; wait for God’s best.

Maintain purity.

Use your time to serve God.

Today’s Takeaways

1. Every season of life is for God’s glory.

2. Purity is the expectation of every Christian, regardless of age or life stage.

3. God has given singles the unique opportunity to invest their life/time for the gospel.

4. Churches should intentionally incorporate singles into the family life of the body.

5. If a person is not satisfied in Christ, changing his/her relationship status will not change that.
