The Gift and Goals of Singleness
In a culture that often defines people by their relationship status, God reminds us of a better truth: your worth and identity come from Him alone. In Week 2 of our Home Sweet Home series, Pastor Dustin and Mandy share a timely message called “The Gift and Goals of Singleness.” Singleness is not a gap to be filled but a gift to be embraced — a season to walk in purity, pursue spiritual growth, and maximize your influence for the Kingdom. Key Scriptures: 1 Corinthians 7:7–8, 17 | Ephesians 4:14–15 | Matthew 7:16–17 | Galatians 5:22–23 | Proverbs 13:20 In this message, you’ll discover: – How to be content and maximize your singleness – What to become and what to look for in relationships – 10 warning signs you can’t ignore when pursuing a future spouse – Why your identity is complete in Christ — not in your relationship status “Learn to see singleness as a gift, not a gap.” “Use your freedom for Kingdom impact.” Closing Prayer from Pastor Dustin & Mandy: God, my identity is not found in my relationship status but in You. I am chosen, complete, and called. Use this season for Your purpose. Let me walk in wholeness, trust Your timing, and live with joy as I follow You wholeheartedly. Whether you’re single, married, or somewhere in between, this message will encourage you to see your season through God’s eyes and embrace the unique calling He has for you. What’s one way you can maximize your season of singleness? Share in the comments!
