What are the benefits of being single? Click on the order button below to download this Single Living Bible Study as a Microsoft Word file. Overview While it’s devastatingly easy to harp on the negatives of being single—you hate eating dinner by yourself, here comes another holiday with no one to bring home, the prospective candidates in your singles’ group are a bunch of freaks—the truth is that there’s a lot that’s quite good about the single life. What can I appreciate and enjoy during this stage of my life? How can I stay grounded in reality? Can I be “just friends” with the opposite sex? What can I do to make good use of my time? What’s the difference between loneliness and solitude? This study will explore these questions, culling perspectives from various writers and examining different passages from God’s Word to develop a positive outlook on singleness. Table of Contents —Teaching point one: Revel in the freedom and time that God has given you and joyfully make the most of it. —Teaching point two: Stay grounded in reality: live in the present and avoid idealizing what you do not have. —Teaching point three: Invest in friendships and allow yourself to be blessed in return. —Teaching point four: Practice the spiritual discipline of solitude.• Apply Your Findings • Recommended Resources ARTICLE FROM TODAY’S CHRISTIAN WOMAN • What’s So Great About Being Single?, by Camerin Courtney (September/October 1998, 4 printed pages) This study is 12 printed pages.
