“Singleness”

"Dear CMR,

I am recently out of an eight-month relationship, and it didn't end very well. I find myself making myself busy just so that I don't have to think about it all. I know that isn't healthy. Can you give me some tips on how to take care of myself and slow down to process this change?

Single, Sad & Healing"

Dear CMR,

How do you suggest finding confidence in yourself, in the future, and in marriage after going through a divorce?

Sometimes, the desire to be in a relationship, whether a dating relationship or a marriage relationship, can be overwhelming. What happens when that desire starts to get in the way of other things you want to do?

Dr. Carrie Stockton takes a few minutes to describe why this perception occurs and how single people can find deep love and true intimacy in friendship, the church, and family.

How do I know if I am dating the right person? Should relatively minor things like cleanliness affect a relationship? Has God chosen one specific person for me to marry? What if I choose wrong? In today's podcast, Dr. Chris Grace and Dr. Tim Muehlhoff answer your questions about dating, God's will, and more on the Art of Relationships.

In today's video, Dr. Carrie Stockton explores perceptions of singleness in the U.S. and compares it to a biblical understanding of how God wants us to develop a robust life as an unmarried individual.
