#SingleGoals2020: Nina is living an adventurous single life

This week we want you to meet Nina B., our #SingleGoals2020 feature from Clarksville, TN. She is a multi-faceted single in her late 30s and is living her life fully in many ways that have inspired us to share!

BLISS: Share how you are making the most out of your singleness:

Nina: “I have traveled to 15 countries, skydived, purchased my home, got my Master’s degree, mentored youth, published two books and became a foster mom. Those are just a few ways that I have been making the most of my life. When you are obedient to God, your life will be an adventure!”

BLISS: What is one piece of advice that you would like to share with other singles?

“If you knew you were going to die in 30 days, what would you do differently? Go ahead and do that now…don’t wait for a spouse to start living with purpose.”

BLISS: What are you currently doing in ministry or for the Kingdom of God?

N: “Currently, I serve at Preston Taylor Ministries. We serve around 300 students by providing mentors, literacy intervention and enrichment opportunities. Our goal is to help students live out their God-inspired dreams so we share the gospel with them first and foremost. I serve at my church each week and try to be obedient to the less obvious ministry opportunities in my life such as sending encouragement to others, praying for friends, forgiving others, being kind, etc.”

BLISS: What project or business do you want to share with the BLISSforSingles audience?

N: “My book “Confessions” is a wonderful resource for Christian women who are trying to remain abstinent until marriage. I wrote this book because I felt like growing up in the church the only message I got was ‘Don’t have sex before marriage and God will send you a husband.’ That message was damaging, so this book is my story and my hope is to create a safe space for Christian women to talk about the struggles of abstinence. As far as other projects, I have partnered with @lifewithim.retreats for an incredible spiritual retreat in Morocco! The focus of this international retreat is the Kingdom of God, so if you want to be immersed in a different culture, bathed in God’s word and make lifetime friends, consider joining me!”

BLISS: Anything else that you’d like to share with us?

N: “I have always wanted to be fully known, so Psalm 139 has been my life passage. No matter what I am going through, when I recite that verse I am reminded that God is mindful of me and He knows me in the deepest way.”

Amen to that and thank you, Nina, for sharing your single goals with us! If you or someone you know has their own advice and inspiration for your fellow singles, feel free to fill out this brief form to be part of our #SingleGoals2020 series!
