    Amanda

    Amanda is a retired teacher whose journey took her from a small farming community to the jungle of Venezuela as a young, single woman--and then back again. Okay, I can't imagine going that far away alone and having to communicate with my family by mail. She's an amazing woman of faith, and says frankly that she doesn't consider herself marriage material--teaching was her niche.  Old Maid on social media Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oldmaidpod/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/oldmaidpod/

    Old Maid Asks - How do I make friends with moms?

    It can be tough, as a single woman, to make friends at church - especially when the other women your age are all moms. In this episode, I ask five moms how I, a single woman, can be a friend to them. Because we need each other, and we have a lot to give to each other if we can just start the conversation.  Old Maid on social media:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oldmaidpod/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/oldmaidpod/

    Ethleen

    Ethleen Sawyerr is the author of Defiant! Redefining singleness at 30+.  "In a world that still treats marriage as an accomplishment, Ethleen Sawyerr found herself conflicted about the arrival of her 30th birthday. Still single, she questioned why God had continued to withhold one of the things she desired most: a husband. With a spouse came a lifetime companion to love, close confidant to share every secret with, and partner to raise a family." The story joins Ethleen on her introspective journey, chronicling pivotal moments of frustration, loneliness, and transformation as a single Christian woman longing for “God’s best.” Ethleen's websites: http://www.ethleenwrites.com/ https://singlelifenavigator.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ethleenwrites/

She's written extensively on theology, relationships and sexuality in a Christian context on her blog, Meditations of a Travelling Nun and is currently writing a book on LGBTQ discrimination in the church.
