{"product_id":"of-one-heart-being-single-in-the-lds-world-9781449537821","title":"Of One Heart: Being Single In The LDS World","description":"In the LDS world (or the world of The Church Of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) most adults are married with children. It has only been in the last ten years that being single in the church has become much more common. Unfortunately, marriages are failing everywhere and there are now one third of the adults at church who are single. Whether by divorce, death of a spouse or never married at all, there are challenges to being single in a predominately married world. Challenges Valerie Steimle had never realized until she became single herself when her husband of 25 years suddenly passed away leaving her with nine children at her charge. A daunting task to say the least. This book was written to help all those who are single, all those who have single friends and all those priesthood leaders with single members under their jurisdiction. The book was written to help others understand what it is like to be single and includes writings from other singles on how they feel about being single.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Valerie J.

Steimle graduated from Ricks College in 1979 and attended Brigham Young University from 1979 to 1982, where she met Robert Steimle. They married and had nine children. Robert passed away in 2006 at 50, a very devastating experience for her. She then met and married James Foy in 2008. Valerie currently resides with her family in Lower Alabama. While she was raising her children, Valerie felt compelled to write about the family and started with a newspaper column in the local paper. She then published her first book, called Home Is Where The Heart Is, which is a collection of those articles. Her next book, Home Is Where The Learning Is: Homeschool Lifestyles from Homeschool Moms, is about schooling children at home. She also writes weekly editorials for a local paper, The Independent and to date has published over 200 articles. Besides writing and reading, Valerie loves to spend time with her family and watches movies, embroiders, and gardens.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Createspace Independent Publishing Platform","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44923872739443,"sku":"9781449537821","price":19.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_ca3eed2a-73b2-4e8e-aa06-d7289036bfdf.jpg?v=1778002901","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/of-one-heart-being-single-in-the-lds-world-9781449537821","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
