WHAT IS NEEDED FOR A CHURCH TO HAVE AN EFFECTIVE SINGLES MINISTRY?
HURST: Every church, regardless of its size, is called to minister to single adults. To have an effective singles ministry, you need six things: (1) A program designed specifically for single adults that provides them a time when they can build relationships with each other. (2) Since everything rises and falls on leadership, good leadership is important. (3) A teacher who can lead single adults into the truths of God’s Word and help them apply them to their lives. (4) Activities that give single adults a chance to interact with each other. (5) Bonding experiences, through small groups or retreats. (6) A positive identity for singles in the church.
