Key Takeaways:

Theological Perspective on Singleness: Dr. Treweek underscores the need for a deeper understanding of God's perspective on singleness, referencing historical church views and biblical texts.

Practical Church Inclusion: Simple actions, like recognizing single members within congregations and celebrating their milestones, can make an enormous difference in fostering inclusivity.

The Art of Friendship: Rediscovering and valuing deep friendships outside marriage can enrich community life and personal well-being.

Multiple Narratives: Moving beyond the notion that marriage is the ultimate relational goal and appreciating the diverse ways people can lead fulfilling lives.

Significant Statistics: Recognizing that one-third of church congregations in Australia consists of unmarried people can motivate changes in pastoral approaches.



Notable Quotes:

"We need to better understand what God's perspective on singleness is."

"For decades, the evangelical church was kind of able just to ride the marriage and family wave."

"A person in church alone is an emergency."

"Are you aware of how many people in your church are unmarried?"

She Wasn't Born Yesterday

How do you deal with the ‘pause’? How do you know you’re dating someone with a narcissistic personality disorder? How do you move on from divorce? Behind the scenes of a 40+ influencer and how to reverse the aging process, are just a few topics tackled.

SWBY features Janet Evans, an ex M&C Saatchi advertising creative and Dr Amelia Haines, a sexual and relationship therapist, who have written Australia’s first book on empty nest syndrome called Empty Next. A chance interview on radio station Hope 103.2 about the book inspired the podcast.

“So many unique issues affect women of our age, including empty nest syndrome, and nothing’s off limits in SWBY! We really dive headfirst into them, but hopefully with lightness and relevant wit where possible,” Janet commented. “We were incredibly lucky to chat to some very high profile guests, including CEOs of important organisations, who shared their expertise with us and our audience.”
