Singleness in the Church with David Platt - Episode 857

Today is an exciting day over here at AFD Inc! Because we’re launching Single Purpose League TODAY (make sure to click the link to find out more!!), we wanted to have a real conversation about being single in the church… because…well… it’s a whole thing. There’s a lot of beauty to it, but there’s also a lot of hurt, misunderstanding, and disappointment, so we invited my long-time friend, Pastor David Platt back on pod, so we could have an honest conversation about how singles can thrive in their church, what conversations we could be having with our pastors and church leaders (and vice versa) and how we help single people not feel invisible. If you're single, be sure to check out Single Purpose League over on Patreon and become a member so you can listen to more of this conversation. Today’s episode was a WOWIE ZOWIE and I’m so thankful for David’s insight and honesty. Are we now a Mike Kelsey fan pod?! DUH.
