Parenting by One was born in my heart more than ten years ago. As a single parent, I faced all of life’s “normal” situations, and at times I was just overwhelmed! With the responsibilities of motherhood, I also worked full-time, kept up my home, and was very involved in my church. Had it not been for good friends, it would have been nearly impossible to do all of this. I always felt that God had a plan for me to encourage single parents. Because of this, I created the book "Saving Our Singles - 101 Ways The Church Can Reach The Single Parent" to help churches as they minister to single parents. This book is now available for purchase. Thank you for visiting Parenting by One, please come back often as we expand our offerings.
