Lindsey Duncan on Singleness

On Tuesday night, The Awakening's young adult pastor Phil Ogilvie interviewed Lindsey Duncan about how she tries to glorify God as a single. You may have already read Brooke's post about how what Lindsey had to say really spoke to her, and here's a chance for you to listen to the interview yourself in case you missed it. (Or if you were there and just want to listen again!)


We truly believe that God really used Lindsey to speak to a lot of people that night, and the message she shares is one that Christian singles everywhere should hear! Check it out below, and feel free to share it with your friends!





And just in case you don't have the time to listen to the whole 15 minutes of complete awesomeness, here are some of the highlights:


  • No matter what you do with your time to make it fruitful, God's going to honor that if you're doing it for His glory.
  • There's more to life than having lots and lots of fun; our time is worth more. God can use you--He can take your life and use you to love other people if you open yourself up to that possibility. (1 Corinthians 3:11-15)
  • "I chose not to be defined by what I don't have. Singleness is always this term that marks you as a person without a significant other. And that's fine, but that's not who I am. I am a complete, whole Lindsey Duncan, all by myself." 
  • Here's the stake of truth to drive through your heart: Everything you can long for in a husband (or wife), you already have in Christ. The cool thing about that is when he or she finally comes along, it's like icing on the cake! 
  • Where ever God has put you in your life right now, know that your life has been so specifically designed for you so that we would best seek Him. 
These points don't even come close to doing any real justice to all the truth Lindsey poured out during the interview, so we hope you take the time to listen to it in full! 

We hope you chose to join us this coming Tuesday as The Awakening continues its series on Ruth & Relationship series. Part 2: Dating
