Many years ago I had the pleasure of attending a youth camp with a bunch of other church kids. Besides sports, lectures, swimming, and campfires we also had workshops. I love workshops. Small groups of people getting to know each other by discussing faith and life and whatever else comes to mind. In my personal opinion, girls-only workshops are the best of the best because when it's just girls we tend to get a lot more personal (sorry guys, that's just the way it is). In one such workshop my leader said something that I have pondered ever since. "I think being single is a curse." My seventeen-year-old self did not know what to do with this information. Blink. Blink again. Did she really just say that? Is that true? Are all of us single ladies doomed? If singleness is a curse and curses are bad how could Paul do so much for Jesus? Maybe it's only a curse for women... It didn't make sense that any stage ...
