Loneliness, setting boundaries, finding fulfilment: Real struggles and practical tips from singles on living a vibrant life.

“If you ask me, ‘Do you still have that desire to get married?’ Absolutely. But does that desire paralyse you and cause you to be unable to walk and love and enjoy and do ministry and love the Lord? Not any more," says Isaac Ong. Photo courtesy of Isaac Ong.

Nearly 350 people, mostly singles (90%), joined Zoom chat show Salt&Light Family Night (February 23) to talk about what was on their hearts – shining as a single.
