Kevin Offner, a friend on InterVarsity Christian Fellowship's Graduate & Faculty Ministry, will be leading the below seminar on Sunday, January 20, in Washington, D.C.  If you're in the area, I commend it to you.  If you're not in the area, take a few minutes to read his Touchstone magazine piece, Three’s No Crowd.

Have you or your friends ever wondered why Christian single women are often left un-pursued by Christian men?  How can these women maintain hope?   What should they pray for?  What can you do practically as a single person or as a friend of single people?  If you have asked any of these tough questions in an age in which there are fewer Christian men than Christian women, this teaching is for you!  Both men and women -- single or married -- are invited to this talk.

Kevin Offner, Intervarsity Christian Fellowship’s campus minister for graduate students in Washington, D.C., has written widely in Christian magazines on issues of courtship, gender, sexuality and the twists that modern society has added to these topics.  He will bring his gifting in addressing these issues when he gives a teaching on how women can respond to the relative dearth of male Christian suitors, at 11:30 a.m. on Sunday, Jan. 20, in Cherrydale Baptist Church’s Besley Room.

After Kevin’s 30-minute talk, the audience will be able to split up by gender and Kevin will facilitate a 15-minute informal discussion time with the men.  The women participating will meet separately and Ms. Allison King with facilitate their informal 15-minute discussion time.

As well as being a longtime campus minister for graduate students, Kevin is an elder at Grace Presbyterian Church in Washington, D.C. He married for the first time when he was 39, and he and his wife, Amy, now have a young son. Check out Three’s No Crowd -- a piece on how married Christians can help their unmarried Christian friends.
