In this episode of the Hope + Help Podcast, host Christine Chappell interviews Jenilyn Swett about her book Singleness: Living Faithfully. Some of the questions addressed in this interview are: • Why is the topic of identity important to consider when discussing singleness? • What are some unhelpful platitudes singles might hear frequently? • What are some challenges and opportunities that are unique to singles in the local church? • How can biblical lament help singles to express their feelings of grief, loneliness, anger, and disappointment? • What is "ambiguous loss" and how might it apply it the context of singleness? • Why is it important for singles to learn how to "talk back" to the self-pity they may be tempted to feel? • How does Revelation 19:6-7 offer hope and perspective to single Christian men and women?
