You bring up a very interesting point in contention...one, in fact, that has been plaguing me since before I graduated from college. <BR/> <BR/>Singles ministries are overrated. We are all single for a period (some people for as long as they live but most people are single for less time). Marriage is an earthly covenant that is not recognized in Heaven. I think it's important to acknowledge that we will stand before a holy God as individuals -- not as married couples -- and therefore, we should conduct our lives, whether single or married, in an effort to glorify Christ through every walk of our lives. In general, I question the over-compartmentalization of Believers in ministries.<BR/><BR/>Personally, I wish to see more ministries for all age groups and for those who are in all walks of life. I would love to be a part of a Christian theology book club through our church. I think this would be an amazing opportunity for people from all walks to learn and grow from the Word and, even moreso, from each other. The only problem is...I cannot lead a co-ed group. I'd love to co-lead, however, if the opportunity ever arose.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
