The episode discusses the misconceptions surrounding singleness in the church and features insights from Dr. Doug Hankins.

Being single does NOT meant there’s something wrong. Singleness is not a problem to be fixed. In fact, the only thing broken is how we treat single people. So says pastor and professor, Dr. Doug Hankins . We’ll talk about why singles often feel like they don’t belong in the church.
