Single life isn't always the unhappy lot of those who just can't seem to find a spouse. On the contrary, it can be a holy vocation within the lay state lived out, often in a hidden way, by souls who have had an authentic encounter with Christ.
Here, author Luanne Zurlo sheds light on this little-understood vocation discerned and embraced by a small but growing number of single persons who neither marry nor enter religious life.
These souls are joyfully single for a greater purpose, nourishing both the world and the Church with the unique spiritual strengths and graces that God gives to souls who deliberately remain single for Him "" in the world but not of it.
