Podcasts about singleness

Send us a textWelcome to the Episode:In today's episode, we explore a question that's as old as the Church itself: Should I get married—or stay single? It's a question shaped by culture, personal longing, and spiritual calling. We turn to 1 Corinthians 7:1–7 to hear Paul's wise, pastoral, and often surprising counsel on marriage, celibacy, sex, and the spiritual gift of each.Whether you're married, single, widowed, or unsure of what's next—this conversation is for you. Let's challenge cultural assumptions, reframe singleness as a calling, and re-centre marriage as a covenant of mutual love and responsibility.Episode NotesKey Themes:Challenging Cultural Assumptions: Our world links happiness with romance—but Scripture has a different vision for human flourishing.Marriage and Celibacy as Gifts: Paul affirms both marriage and singleness as God-given callings—not commands or defaults.Intimacy and Responsibility in Marriage: Marital intimacy is a mutual, sacred duty—not a bargaining chip or personal right.Celibacy Is Not Second-Class: Singleness is not a failure or waiting room for marriage—it can be a vocation of focused devotion to the Lord.Spiritual Discernment: The real question isn't “Which is better?” but “What is God calling me to?” Takeaways:You are not incomplete if you are single.You are not more spiritual because you are married.Sexual intimacy in marriage is a sacred, mutual obligation—not a tool for control.Singleness is not a delay of purpose—it can be the purpose.The key question: Do you have the gift?Final ThoughtIn a world confused about identity, desire, and devotion, Paul's pastoral insight cuts through the noise: God's will for your life isn't about your relationship status—it's about your faithful response to His calling.Support the showTo listen to my monthly church history podcast, subscribe at; https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.com For an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

Her journey reminds us that God sees, God knows, and He always goes before us.Contentment is possible: Singleness is not second best. Stacie shares how God gave her peace and purpose in remaining single.God sees and prepares: Stacie talks about God's faithfulness in connecting her, a woman without children, with daughters who needed a mother's love.Loneliness is real — but so is God's presence.Scripture Highlight:“The Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord gives grace and glory.

Send us a textGood morning! Thank you for taking a few minutes to listen. If you are interested in the Daily Bible Devotional, you can find it at the links below:Amazon - (paperback, hardcover, and Kindle)Spiritbuilding.com - (premium quality paperback)Youtube Video Introducing the ContentFeel free to reach out with any questions: emersonk78@me.comI Corinthians 7The church poses questions to Paul about marriage and singleness. He offers guidance based on God's law while also considering their current circumstances. He emphasizes that marriage is good and serves as a way to avoid sexual immorality. They must recognize that the marriage commitment is crucial, as he advises them to reject divorce and, if they do divorce, to either remain unmarried or seek reconciliation. Even if married to an unbeliever, commitment and faithfulness can lead to the spouse's salvation. Furthermore, there is value in singleness, as it promotes an undivided focus on God. He advises believers to remain in their current situations, as persecution is approaching for God's people. In every situation, “undistracted devotion to the Lord” is the goal and necessary for both married and single Christians.  Christians face various seasons of life, including singleness, marriage, or widowhood. Paul reminds us in I Corinthians 7 that each of these situations is an opportunity to serve God faithfully. Whether married or single, we should focus on honoring God with undivided devotion. In marriage, this means a loving commitment to our spouse, reflecting Christ's faithfulness. For singles, it means embracing the freedom to serve God without distraction. Paul also encourages us to trust God's plan and remain content in the situations He has called us to, knowing He works for our good. This mindset should be evident to the world as we live in purity, faithfulness, and commitment to God's purposes, reflecting His glory in all relationships and circumstances. Giving God, who provides all that we need for life and godliness, thank You for the benefits of marriage. For the married, we commit to faithfulness and patience, living out Your purposes and uplifting souls in our home and everywhere our family has influence. For the unmarried, we pray for their strength to have hope in You, and to use this stage in life to accomplish incredible things in Your kingdom. In whatever circumstance, prepare us to be devoted to You regardless of persecution or trial. Give us contentment where we are and wisdom in whatever may come next.   Thought Questions: -       Describe the commitment God designed for marriage. What level of trust should exist? How strongly should we work to avoid divorce? -       Is it possible for an unbelieving spouse to be “sanctified through” their spouse? How should this encourage believers married to unbelievers? -       Singleness is not discussed enough among God's people. In this chapter, what are the advantages for someone who is not currently married?

In this episode, our host Kyia is joined by her small group leader, mentor, friend, and worship leader for an honest conversation about some of the most tender and challenging parts of the Christian walk.Together, they unpack experiences with church hurt—how it shapes our faith, what healing can look like, and why it's still worth choosing community. They also dive deep into obedience during seasons of waiting, where trusting God feels costly and uncertain. Lastly, they explore the topic of singleness within the church, breaking down unhealthy norms and reframing singleness as a season full of purpose, not lack.

The single season can often feel like a desert, where joy, love, and contentment seem far off. The single season does not have to be a time of feeling dry and alone. We can experience Jesus as our source of life and love during our singleness. Order Single but in a Relationship with God book: https://amzn.to/3qdHNPxJoin our 4-week Embracing Singleness Study Group: https://livingrevelations.com/single-but-in-a-relationship-with-god/Have you been blessed by our podcast?

Sex, Singleness, and Marriage | 1 Corinthians 7 by Christ Covenant

6 July 2025 - A Glory Revealer Named Singleness-Sermon by Christian Family Chapel

6 July 2025 - A Glory Revealer Named Singleness-Q&A by Christian Family Chapel

When it comes to dating, relationships, and marriage, it can feel that we are often left with more questions than answers. Why do we marry? Who should I marry? How do I know when they are “the one?” How do we date? When do we break-up? How can I be content in singleness? As Christians, it is vital that we trust in Scripture as the lamp to our feet and the light to our path, listening to God and his Word rather than listening to what the culture and the world around us has to say about relationships. In this Series, we will answer what, why, how, and who to date as followers of Jesus in our culture and context.This week, Brent walks us through what the Bible says about singleness. It can be hard to believe that singleness can be a good thing, and even more difficult to believe that it can be a gift from God that we can use for our good and His glory. Yet this is exactly what the Bible tells us. As Brent walks us through 1 Corinthians 7, he highlights 3 “red flags” when it comes to singleness as a follower of Jesus. Those red flags are you don't see singleness as a gift from our Heavenly Father, you waste the season, or you have the wrong end goal.We hope you're encouraged by this podcast! If you have questions about our church or what it means to follow Jesus, we'd love to hear from you!

This episode explores the biblical view of singleness, challenging the cultural assumption that marriage is the superior or expected path for every believer. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 7 and creation principles, Pastor Caldwell shows that both marriage and singleness are God-ordained callings. The discussion offers counsel for those struggling with loneliness, purity, and contentment, while also addressing the church's responsibility to affirm and support single believers. A Christ-centered, eternity-focused view is essential for all seasons of life.

The idea of duplicity in people is spoken of throughout the Bible and is always condemned. Jesus spoke of hypocrites at least 23 times in the Gospels. We are talking about people having two different personalities, changing into another person and acting completely different, moods, fits of anger, fits of melancholy and depression. Singleness of heart, simplicity, and sincerity are always spoken of as right in the sight of God, and the only way to have stability in life. The word "double-minded" actually means, "two-spirited," or vacillating. Doublemindedness is a spiritual issue, and the only cure is the new birth. Ephesians 2:15 "Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;"

An expository sermon series on the book of 1st Corinthians.

Intro:Good morning! We're diving into Proverbs chapter five today, as Glenn Power teaches. We'll confront a challenging, yet crucial, theme: the warnings about immorality and lust. While intense, these warnings and God's positive vision for sexuality are vital medicine for our souls in our "Summer of Wisdom" series.Scripture References: Proverbs 5:1-14, Proverbs 5:15-20, Proverbs 7:26, Proverbs 16:6, Matthew 5:27-29, John 4, 2 Samuel 11, Romans 5, 2 Peter 1Key Points:Proverbs' Urgent Warnings:Chapters 5-7 are almost entirely dedicated to warnings against immorality and lust.This feels like a "fear tactic" to modern ears, but Proverbs is not embarrassed to warn. It's the fear of the Lord (Proverbs 16:6), avoiding evil by understanding sin's devastating consequences.Jesus amplifies this: "If your right eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out... better to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell" (Matthew 5:27-29). He goes to the heart, where lust begins.A Positive Vision for Sexuality:Proverbs also gives a positive vision for sex within marriage. Proverbs 5:15-20 graphically depicts the joy and pleasure of marital intimacy.God created sex as a beautiful gift within the marriage covenant.We need to move beyond shame; the problem isn't being "too sexual," but often not experiencing sexual fulfillment in God's intended way.The "Immoral Woman" in Modern Context:Proverbs' "immoral woman" represents a spirit of temptation (a profile of darkness) that pulls both men and women astray.Today, this "immoral woman" takes many forms, notably pornography, which statistics show is a pervasive struggle even among Christians and leaders. Proverbs 7:26: "Many are the victims she has brought down; her slain are a mighty throng."The Path to Freedom:Run to God, not from God, even in failure. Romans 5:8: "While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." God doesn't shame; He washes and loves.Embrace a Kingdom Gospel powerful enough to set you free. God gives us "everything we need for a godly life" (2 Peter 1:3). Don't settle for addiction.Overcome lust through daily connection with the Spirit: Prayer, Word study, fasting.Overcome lust through divine purpose: Idleness and boredom lead to sin (2 Samuel 11 – David and Bathsheba). God has a unique mission for you.Overcome lust through true intimacy with God: For singles, the highest pleasure is intimacy with the Creator. John 4: "Whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst... a spring of water welling up to eternal life." God's love satisfies deeply.Overcome lust through transparent relationships, self-control, self-imposed boundaries, and specialized support. If you've tried everything, get help!Conclusion:Sexual sin is deeply personal and can feel shameful, a padlock without a key. But God offers life, not death. In our deepest, darkest moments, He says, "I choose you. I love you. Come to me." Breaking sin's power isn't about bootstraps; it's through Him.Call to Action:Receive prayer today; breaking sin's power isn't done alone. When we open up and invite God's light, amazing things happen. Come to the table to remember Jesus' broken body and spilled blood—His ultimate price for our freedom. He gave His life so we could have life. Support the show*Summaries and transcripts are generated using AI. Please notify us if you find any errors.

When you're a person of faith—someone who honored your vows before God—going through a divorce can shake you to your core. It's not just the loss of a marriage; it's the lingering question many struggle with silently: “Does God hate me because I'm divorced?”Scripture has often been misquoted or misinterpreted in ways that leave people feeling condemned, ashamed, and distanced from God—especially in Christian communities that emphasize marriage as the ultimate goal.In today's episode, I'm joined by Dr. Dharius Daniels for a real, grounded conversation about what the Bible actually says about divorce—and what it doesn't. We explore how scripture is often interpreted in ways that leave people feeling condemned, how to embrace God's forgiveness and release the weight of guilt, why singleness is not a punishment but a purposeful season, and how to trust God with what's still possible—even after divorce.Follow Dr. Dharius Daniels on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dhariusdanielsFollow Dr. Daniels on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/dharius.danielsDr. Daniels Website: https://dhariusdaniels.com/To learn more about Change Church: https://www.lifechange.org/**INTERESTED IN WORKING WITH ME 1:1 THIS SUMMER?

Does biblical womanhood only apply to wives and moms? Not even close. In this episode, Shanda speaks directly to single women and unpacks what it means to live out biblical womanhood right now—before the wedding ring, the house, or the kids. She discusses why your identity is already rooted in Christ, not in your relationship status, and why the standards you set for dating and the kind of man you're drawn to matter more than you think. Shanda also walks through the three ways we learn life's lessons—by instruction, experience, or the hard way—and encourages you to pursue wisdom now so you don't pay the price later. You'll hear practical encouragement on how to prepare for marriage, how to find godly mentors, and why your life and purpose have already begun. Whether you're single, dating, or just feeling overlooked in this season—this one's for you.   Find Shanda www.shandafulbright.com Instagram & Facebook: @shandafulbright Email: hello@shandafulbright.com Free Resources: https://shandafulbright.com/links YouTube: http://bit.ly/ShandaYT2021 Store: www.Shandafulbright.com/shop
