You can love God, love your life, and still be tired of coming home alone...
Are you a Christian woman over 40 (or close to it) who loves God, has done the healing work, built a full life — and you’re still single?
In this vulnerable episode of The Powder Room, Ivy opens up about the quiet frustration many faithful, healed, successful single women experience but rarely admit out loud. You pray. You serve. You’ve grown. You’re content. But sometimes, you’re tired of coming home to an empty house.
We’re unpacking the tension between faith and longing, why desiring marriage does not mean you lack trust in God, and five things the church needs to stop telling single women about waiting on a husband.
If you’ve ever felt guilty for wanting partnership while still trusting God’s timing, this episode will remind you: contentment doesn’t cancel desire — and you are not alone.
