10 Ways to Embrace the Benefits of Your Singleness

The Apostle Paul writes in I Corinthians 7:8, “So I say to those who aren’t married and to widows – it’s better to stay unmarried, just as I am.” Why did he say that? And why does it sometimes seem like it is harder to embrace singleness than it is to celebrate being married or in a relationship?

What are the benefits of singleness, and how can you enjoy each and every one?
