Customer Reviews

Amazingly simple, and Tremendously Honest

I have been aware of Mary Whelchel's ministry for more than 20 years. She and I are actually very good friends. We are part of the same local church, The Moody Church, here in Chicago. She addresses issues that far too many pastors (and others) are afraid to bring up, for fear of "offending someone." Mary takes the chance, and succeeds at transparency, honesty, and integrity. Each of the twelve chapters spoke deeply to my experience as a single man, a Christian believer, and an adult. This book is tremendous. I would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone and everyone.

Very good Book

This book is very helpful with my single journey right now. What I love best about the book is that she talks about the bible as well as her real life experience. If you are wanting to grow in Christ the right way as a single person, this book is a great way to help you in the process. God Bless.

I couldn't put this book down

WOW. I would have loved to have read this book when I was in my 20s and 30s (but it wasn't written until 1999). The author is very straight-forward, realistic, honest and encouraging.

amazing insight and biblically sound

this is an amazing book for all singles, and even marrieds because mary gives valuable truth and insight into how we all relate to one another. the mistakes she discusses are all correct, I think, and she offers her own candid, open and insightful look at how we are to respond to these mistakes and carry on in our lives in a joyful, contented way as Christ would enable us, if we allow him to do His work in our lives. I found it very encouraging, and insightful and also very personal because I feel like I can relate to Mary, or better yet, that she can relate to me, as she writes the book in a very honest way. Her writing is very touching and it will spur you on to give thanks to God for all he has done and will do in your life-- and to continue trusting God, even when it is difficult. It is a wonderful book that I recommend highly.
