Great Books For Christian Singles -- Devotional Books For Single Christians
75Are you a Christian single? Believe it or not, you have a marvelous gift -- the freedom to pursue the most meaningful relationship you will ever have, with an undivided heart and without distraction. You have more time and opportunity now than you may ever have to focus on Jesus Christ -- who He is, what He did for you, and what He wants for you.
A personal Bible study is one of the best ways to deepen your relationship with Christ. Devotional books help you reconnect with God and dig into His word on a daily basis. Just a few minutes of quiet time each day can recharge your spirit and draw you into a closer, more meaningful relationship with your Lord and Savior.
Devotionals usually contain daily, weekly, or seasonal selections, and there are many titles to choose from. My Utmost For His Highest and Streams In The Desert are two of my favorite devotional books, and they are great for Christians in all walks and stages of life.
As a Christian single, you may be looking for something that addresses the specific needs and challenges of singleness. Here is a short overview of five great devotional books written expressly for single Christians. Whether you are struggling with loneliness, unfulfilled longings, dashed expectations, physical desires, significance, or anything else -- these five devotionals will touch you right where you are, and lead you into a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ.
