Description
Where's My Love Story?
It's your third wedding this year. You are livening up the dance floor with a stirring rendition of "YMCA." Suddenly, the moment comes that separates the crowd like black and white socks. The Slow Dance. This one's in a pair, this one's not in a pair.
You are not in a pair. You thought you would be married much sooner, but it hasn't worked out that way. "This is not the life I imagined," you whisper as you eat your wedding cake.
This book was written with you in mind. Kate Hurley doesn't offer a magic formula that will bring your spouse to you, nor does she ask you to be content with your "gift" of singleness. She gives you permission to grieve your unmet expectations while opening your heart and life to unforeseen possibilities.
Includes a Group Study Guide

Conversational, real and anecdotal. This is a book on the subject that doesn't pretend to have answers or offer shallow wisdom or steps. Instead, Hurley pulls you up aside her at a camp fire or coffee shop, speaks to her experience and, with the discussion questions included at the back of the book, encourages you to impart your own. Gentle and lyrical (much like the musicianship so apparent in her work, this is a patchwork quilt of scripture and experience, renewal and longing. I am glad Kate has invited us into her safe place: full of music and poems and thoughts and sly little asides. Definitely one of the better books I have read on the Single experience for Christians because it is SO real....
