Overall Impression
First, let me say that the book is excellent. The core thesis is very strong and established from the beginning. It’s not a book about finding a partner, but about becoming a person prepared for righteousness. The opening prayer, "Lord, prepare me, not just for a relationship, but for righteousness," set the perfect tone, and I felt my own heart praying along with yours many times as I read. The book’s power is its focus on active formation in Christ versus the passive waiting that so many singles fall into.
Review of the Introduction
The Foreword immediately distinguishes the book from a typical dating manual. The line, "use your season of singleness, not just to wait well, but to become well," is a perfect summary. I also think your shift of the core question from "When will I meet the one?" to "Who is God forming me to become?" is a central and important point for the whole book.
The section on discipleship, which frames singleness as a "holy assignment," really resonated with me. It reminds me of something a coworker once said: "When you're single, you date the church; when you're married, you date your wife." Your writing gives the theological weight to this idea. I will be honest, I think many less mature readers will likely groan and gloss over this section, but it is a truth they cannot afford to miss. The work done in this season of "undivided devotion" is precisely what will sustain them later.
Finally, the line that marriage often "reveals the places we've refused to grow" rings with the clarity of a church bell for anyone who's been through a difficult marriage season. It’s a hard truth that perfectly prepares the reader for the deep soul work ahead.”
