In a Church that is focused on family, singles can feel somewhat discounted and discouraged. Oftentimes the very resources meant to support people can inadvertently cause pain. In the book A Single Voice, author Kristen Oaks addresses questions such as: What is "the single best thing you can do" as a single person in the Church? Are there ways to ease the transition from a singles ward to a home ward?
What are some specific ways to make single life happier and more fulfilling? What are some tips for coping with the unique challenges of holidays? What are the key decisions that singles need to make? A Single Voice addresses these concerns and offers valuable insights, personal reflections (including the story of the author's courtship and marriage to Elder Oaks), and rich advice for living life to the fullest as a single member.
