A very interesting read. Dr. Munroe is a very powerful speaker. So I was encouraged to purchase his book, which did not disappoint.
Dr. Munroe is to the point. There are no fillers, just facts backed by scripture. He encouraged readers, no matter what stage they are in a relationship to develop themselves and be independent, so as not to burden the relationship. His advice is convicting, yet there is the compassion of a father advising his child.
My suggestion for readers new to Dr. Munroe would be to also Google him and watch a few of his videos. This will provide insight into his style as I feel his writing style is similar to what he preaches.

March 20, 2016This is a very good book by Dr. Myles Munroe. Although not with us on this side of life anymore he has managed to speak with such authority and anointing. The book has covered all aspect of relationships and gives some very good advice on how to be healed after divorce. I would also like to add that he gave some very practical advise on being single and whole. No longer can I look at the word 'single' in the same way.
Definitely would recommend.

A must read for anyone looking to live their life to the fullest and be happy while doing it.
An inspiration to everyone single, married, separate, or divorced. It should be a required read before anyone marries.

Myles Munroe defines being "Single" as being "whole." He points out that God said it is not good for man to be "alone," not that it's not good for man to be single. He says that Adam was so busy going out fulfilling his purpose in life that God had to "interrupt" him, put him to sleep, and then create the woman for him. He says that we must be whole before even considering marriage. We should seek God first and work on fulfilling our purpose, not seek a mate as our primary goal. This is a much needed message for a lot of singles out there seeking a mate! He also discusses how a marriage is a covenant relationship and how the Holy Spirit needs to be invited into the relationship.
He moves on to discuss the guilt, pain, and trauma of divorce and how the scripture treats these issues. Anyone still suffering from the guilt of a divorce would find this section useful. This is a must read for anyone who wants to be fully prepared for their next relationship.

Encouraged you to be whole before pursuing other relationships. Explained the difference between being unmarried and single. Unmarried is without a spouse and single is defined as unique, whole and separate. Adam was complete before God created Eve as his helper. The very thing that makes you need to get married will become the problem in your marriage. You are ready for marriage only when you do not need to be married. It compared Moses and Jesus view on divorce and I found that part confusing. But the basic principal was if you do not plan to stay in marriage forever do not get married. Moses advocated for women's rights regarding divorce. I tried to read the devotional while reading the book but stopped because it became repetitive.

A good book on relationships and how to handle them from the time you're single. Very insightful. This book offers a path to healing for those who have been through broken relationships. Myles paints a clear distinction between being single and being alone (not the same thing) and shows the essence of truly being single before getting into a serious relationship with another person. God is the author of relationship and knows best how they should be handled. We should follow his blueprint if we hope to succeed in our relationships.

Amazing.........
Myles Munroe talks about relationships in a whole new perspective that noone has ever discussed before. He primarily breaks down why it is important to be "single". Not in a sense that we know single be of but in a sense of being "whole". He stresses the importance of this as the number one thing we must achieve and keep on maintaining. We cannot be in a successful relationship if we are not "single" i.e. whole, unique and separate in God. I would recommend this to anyone whatever stage you are in life.

Needed
If you know someone going through a divorce then you need to read this book to understand and they need to read this book to heal. Pastors, Ministers, and Elders need to read this book to be better equipped to minister to someone going through a divorce or had went through one.
Myles Monroe explained the experience of divorce very well and the mark it leaves on people. He uses scripture to validate that pain and to explain why it is that it impacts you a lot. If you are going through a divorce or have gone through a divorce, then this book will help you heal.

In 'Single, Married, Separated, and Life After Divorce', Myles Munroe offers practical biblical insights on relationships and personal growth. He addresses various life stages, encouraging readers to find purpose and fulfillment in every season. A thought-provoking guide for those seeking healing, restoration, and direction.
So many take aways from this book. Some chapters brought healing as i was reading.
“Anger is a temporary attitude which can cause behavior with permanent effects.” 📌

It was pretty good.
Basically says one needs to be "single" or a whole and complete person before they get married. And otherwise talks about God being the glue in the relationship and such.
Could be worth archiving, as it does have a fairly good perspective to help avoid divorce in the first place. But also to help at least the adults heal afterwards.

Understanding the traumas of relationships and losses is so vital for our maturity. I love how his perspective is Kingdom based. Powerful read, be intentional about your relational ties and God’s purpose.

Interesting concept from the master of marriage. Being single is a must, but being alone is not good. This book could be read by anyone (not children of course 🤣). Half of the book is the lessons, and the other half was devotions to meditate.

This book truly explains the mindset one needs to have to be whole…which is important in all relationships and different aspects of life. This is an important read for those that want to align their relationships with what God wants for them.

Wise words that Dr Myles left us with.
