Synopsis

Our world, and indeed our church, seem to be built around a couples culture . From popular music to supermarket offers to family events, being single can mean being the odd one out. Kate Wharton considers the challenges facing singles, addressing the issues of being complete without an other half , staying pure, being single again after divorce or bereavement, and dealing with pressures from both church and society. Kate reminds us that Jesus comes to bring life to the full , whatever our marital status. When we are sold out for God, she says, then life will be the very best that it can be - whether married or single, with children or without - because we will be on our way to becoming who we were created to be. Kate shows us how we can be single and whole.

Honest, funny and positive... a great deal of wisdom for both single and married people. -- Graham Tomlin
Kate knows what she is talking about, and she imbues this, her first book, with that insight borne out of experience and practice. With a growing number of singles in our churches, we all, married or not, need to understand each other better so that we can minister God's grace to each. We want to commend this book to both single and married, all will be better equipped by its insights. It will become a classic; buy your copy before it's sold out! -- John & Anne Coles, Leaders of New Wine, in their Foreword
A celebration of the single state. * Methodist Recorder *
Fabulously down to earth, honest, fun, biblical and enjoyable to read. What more could you want from a book. Single Minded is a timely piece of writing addressing issues that face singles in our world and church today. But not just for singles; it is an uplifting book whatever your marital status. * New Wine Magazine *
`Kate Wharton is a vicar from Liverpool who, by her own admission, has never had a boyfriend. In her courageous, cliche-free and highly personal book, she addresses with humour and candour both the pluses and minuses of the single life. [...] This is an excellent book.' -- Jeremy Moody * Christianity *
