			<description><![CDATA[I would ask what type of ministry and outreach do you have for single Christians BEFORE they're divorced Christians? As a single Christian there is zero support for singles (and we're all single before marriage) to help shape attitudes and beliefs about marriage before it takes place. For example, some people may feel pressure to be married and have a family because that's what a good Christian is supposed to do while they would have been happier and a better servant of God if they we encouraged to think about WHY they want to be married and SHOULD they be married before going off and getting married. Single Christians are overlooked and marginalized and people don't even think it's a viable option that deserves equal ministry and support devoted to singleness. Why is marriage more esteemed than singleness? Jesus doesn't say one state is better than another and Paul says singleness is easier. Help marriage by adequately supporting singleness!]]></description>
