Introduction

Although 44 percent of all adults are unmarried, most churches are focused on marriage and families--and so miss many opportunities to reach out as well as to benefit from all that singles can offer to the church.

Here at last is an up-to-date, comprehensive handbook to single adult ministry. Based on his over twenty-five years of experience, Dennis Franck offers church leaders guidance on all aspects of this often-overlooked ministry, including:

• understanding singles' diverse life situations and needs
• developing a biblical philosophy of ministry
• the practical aspects of building a ministry

Pastors and lay leaders will gratefully welcome this new in-depth resource to guide their ministry to, for, and through single adults.
