In this episode of More Than Roommates, Scott, Derek, and Gabrielle explore what it looks like for married couples to value, support, and engage their single friends in meaningful ways. They reflect on how Scripture elevates singleness, how the church sometimes unintentionally devalues it, and how we can better reflect the love of Jesus—whether single or married.

Questions to Discuss:
1. How do we talk about marriage around our single friends? Are we encouraging or accidentally discouraging?
2. What can we do to make single people feel more included in our family life?
3. In what ways might we be placing too much pressure on our kids (or others) to get married?
