Paul says it is a "gift" to be single...but does it really feel that way? Does God actually call people to singleness? What do you do if you are single but still have a strong desire to get married?In today’s episode, Pastor Jackie and Pastor Derek talk through the concept of singleness. In American churches today, it can seem like many ministries are geared towards couples and families, but what is the role of a Christian who is single? Better yet, what is the role of a Christian who is CALLED to be single, at least for a season? We dig through Scripture to find examples of godly people who were called to singleness and what that can look like in our world today. We also look at how single people who still desire to get married should approach relationships and the kingdom of God.The 17:17 podcast is a ministry of Roseville Baptist Church (MN) that seeks to tackle cultural issues and societal questions from a biblical worldview so that listeners discover what the Bible has to say about the key issues they face on a daily basis.
