Getting Naked Later: Making Sense of the Unexpected Single Life

by Kate Hurley

Overview

Will I always be lonely if I end up alone?

You thought you’d be married by now, but you’re not. Even though your friends in relationships love to tell you that singleness is a gift, this gift comes with its share of fear, grief, and still-to-be-answered prayers.

Life coach and singer-songwriter Kate Hurley has been there, and now she encourages you to open yourself to new opportunities and relationships of all varieties. Getting Naked Later will help you…

• find family in your friends, church, and community
• stop viewing the pursuit of a partner as a formula that demands a solution
• hand over control of your life to God, finding peace in the knowledge that He has a plan for you

You don’t need to give up on romance, but you also don’t need to live on standby, expecting someone else to give your life meaning. Learn how to stop waiting and start embracing your life—right where you are.



This is an expanded edition of the previously released book Cupid is a Procrastinator.
