About Single! Young Christian Woman

Single! Young Christian Woman is published by On My Own Now, a nonprofit with the mission to encourage faith, wise life choices and Christ-likeness in young adults during their transition to living on their own. Our target audience is young, Christian women ages 17 to 23. But if you’re a little older or a little younger, no biggie. In fact, everyone is welcome, but if sometimes you just don’t get it, check to see if it could be because you’re not a young, single, Christian woman! This site is “for attaining wisdom and discipline for understanding words of insight; for acquiring a disciplined and prudent life, doing what is right and just and fair; for giving prudence to the simple, knowledge and discretion to the young – let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance – for understanding proverbs and parables, the sayings and riddles of the wise.” Proverbs 1: 1-6
