    The Real Difficulty of Singleness Part 1

    Cultural and religious assumptions about marriage and relationships hurt our relationships and set us up for devastating post-divorce singleness.

Are people really incomplete without a spouse? A better reading of the creation narrative is liberating and Christ-honoring.
