About Author

Hello
and thank you for visiting! My name is Lisa and I’m the
Christian single woman behind the scenes. I created this
website to
share helpful information I’ve gained over the years that has helped
to strengthen my Christian walk.
After many discussions with my
single friends, it was evident that there are few resources that help
the Christian single woman develop and focus on various aspects of her
life beyond dating. My goal is to provide practical information about
Christian living that single women can apply to their lives as well as
encourage them.
From Misery to Ministry
I
so wanted to be married and couldn’t
understand how a good and loving God could instruct me so clearly to
end this relationship. I
desperately wanted to be obedient so I
ended the relationship and thought surely God would honor my
faithfulness and
send the ‘One’ He had for me. However,
there
seemed to have been no ram in the bush for me. I couldn’t understand
how obeying
God could end in so much heartache and pain.
However,
during these years that
God has “robbed” me of marriage, He has given me so much more. I like
Job can say that
while I knew about
God before, I now know Him for myself. God never wastes a hurt and He
has
used the
trials of singleness to draw me closer to Him and I wouldn’t trade
anything for
the journey.
God
has taught me more about Him, myself and marriage. Truly
He has turned my
misery into ministry and now He allows me to use my experiences to
bless
others. May you
benefit greatly from the lessons
I’ve learned.
My
Beliefs
By
no means am I a Bible scholar, but I do love Christ with my whole heart
and strive to live a life that’s pleasing to Him daily. I became a
Christian at an early age and have attended church my whole life, but
it was not until I was an adult and living on my own that I developed a
relationship
with Christ.
• I believe in the Trinity - God is Father, Son and Holy Spirit in One
• I believe the Bible is true in its entirety and was inspired by God
• I believe Jesus died on the cross for my sins and rose from the dead
to redeem me

The Source of My Knowledge
I am pictured alone above,
but I don’t stand alone. There are numerous people (too many to count)
standing with me that have contributed (and many who continue to
contribute) to my spiritual growth. From grandparents to pastors from
friends to mentors, from authors to musicians, they’ve all played a
vital role.
Some I’ve known personally and they’ve taken time to
explain biblical truths to me and answer questions. But most
importantly I thank them for the examples they’ve lived before me.
Others I’ve never met, but their words via books, sermons, songs, etc.
have ministered to me and also contributed to my spiritual growth. I am
and will be forever grateful for all that each has taught me.
Most
of all, I am thankful to God for not only choosing to have a
relationship with me, but choosing to use me in His service and reveal
Himself to me through His Word. Truly God uses me, despite me. Just
like you, I don’t always get it right but I’m so thankful that I serve
a forgiving Father who chooses to love me anyway, just as I am and
loves me enough not to allow me to stay as I am.
Knowing fully
that He does not need to use me to reach others for Him, I am honored,
delighted and humbled by the opportunity to share truths and insights
I’ve learned about being a Christian single woman with each of you.
This Website
Another
insight I’d like to share with each of you is SBI! This website was
built using Site Build It! I knew very little about building a website
when I started. However, I knew I loved giving and sharing with others
and one of my spiritual gifts had been identified as teaching.
While
I was content working in ministry at my church and being involved in
various volunteer activities, God
soon showed me how building a website could bridge the path to my goal
to be in
full-time ministry.
A wonderful
friend with a proven track record introduced me to SBI! and I’ll admit
it has been a lot of work, but it has also been an exciting joy to
build and do something I absolutely love!
So I encourage each of
you to find that thing you love and consider building a website to
teach and/or share with others. It will likely to be a rewarding
experience or maybe even a dream come true (it has been for me).

My Prayer for You
Again, I thank you for visiting and
I pray that you are abundantly blessed by the information you find
here. I hope it blesses your life as much (if not more) as it has
blessed mine. My prayer for you is that you do not leave this site the
same way you arrived, but that you are transformed by knowledge found
here.
May you find help to develop and/or grow your relationship
with Christ and become even more committed to live a life fully
pleasing unto Him. May you seek to worship Him like never before, not
for all the things He does but just for who He is.
And finally,
may you grow in wisdom and seek to live His Word. May you lead a
completely fulfilling Christian life that honors Christ and blesses
others. And may your life forever bring Him Glory!
I truly
believe we are blessed to be a blessing, so as I am blessed with more
wisdom and knowledge, I will continue to add it to the site so you too
can be blessed. So be encouraged my sister, be WHOLE, be sure
to visit
often and tell a friend.
Blessings,
Lisa
