One Single Day

It seems like such a waste. I know at least a dozen attractive, intelligent, godly young men and women who want to be married, and aren’t.  Christian websites inform me that it’s not just a local problem; it’s more of an epidemic. I see and hear hints of frustration, pain, and disappointment, and I experience it myself.

Why is it happening? What can we do about it? These are questions I can’t answer. But as I wrestled with this article — and it was a very difficult one to write — I discovered a question I could answer. With confidence, and even with joy.

Read “One Single Day” over at Boundless.
