If you've read my blog for the first time, or are a regular reader, then I'd love you to find and 'like' my Facebook page. You can read about that, and the recent name change in this post.
At the risk of being considered one who blows his own trumpet, this was a subject about which I wrote a little last year: http://sipech.wordpress.com/2012/02/08/singles-in-the-church/
What I have noticed is, at least in the last few churches I have been a part of (baptist, pentecostal, non-conformist, charismatic) that single people never preach. I mooted this as a point on Twitter and was roundly attacked for doing so. It seems to be the prejudice that daren't be allowed to be spoken about.

My comment - this is a really helpful post that I'd thoroughly recommend.
