Meaning of Singleness, The : Retrieving an Eschatological Vision for the Contemporary Church

---

Outline: Is Christian singleness a burden to be endured or a God-ordained vocation? Might singleness here and now give the church a glimpse of God's heavenly promises? Dani Treweek offers biblical. historical, cultural, and theological reflections a retrieve a theology of singleness for the church today. Drawing upon both ancient and contemporary theologians, including Augustine, AElfric of Eynsham, John Paul III, and Stanley Hauerwas, she contends not only that singleness has served an important role throughout the chruch's history, but that single Christians present the church with a foretaste of the eschatological reality that awaits all of God's people. Far from being a burden, then, Christian singleness is among the highest vocations of the faith.
