SINGLE-MINDED:
FINDING PURPOSE & STRENGTH IN YOUR SEASON OF SINGLENESS
Do you feel stuck in a season of singleness? Are you tired, lonely, or worried about falling behind? You are not alone.
In Single-Minded, bestselling author and former professional athlete Bob Wheatley presents a bold new path for the unmarried Christian. Instead of focusing on self-improvement and dating hacks, this book delivers a biblical blueprint for joy, hope, and spiritual breakthrough as you navigate life before marriage.
Designed as a 30-day challenge, Single-Minded will help you experience the love of Jesus like never before. In just fifteen minutes a day, this book will help you to:
- Deepen your joy and trust in Jesus
- Break free from discouragement and negative thought patterns
- Maximize your God-given season of singleness
This is a book for single Christians, written by a single Christian. It is not theory, and it is not a memory—it is written by a peer in the midst of this season. Whatever your dreams for the future may be, Single-Minded offers a practical, soul-strengthening path to help you stop merely waiting—and start truly living.
praise for single-minded
“Single-Minded delivers a timely and essential message to Christians who are single: ‘Instead of walking toward marriage, walk toward Jesus.’ Bob is a man of character who has written this while living this walk faithfully himself. His words are articulate, compelling, compassionate, and covered in Scripture. This book is an absolutely encouraging must-read for every unmarried Christian.”
RORY VADEN
New York Times bestselling author of Take the Stairs, host of the Eternal Life podcast
“If you are single, spending thirty days with Single-Minded will most certainly wake you up, shake you up, challenge you, and lead you to a place of contentment. God brought to me peace through Bob’s words—a recognition of the things I knew to be true about myself, my life as a widow, and the culture in which we live. The challenges you’ll find before you as you make your way through this book might even propel you toward healing you didn’t know you needed.”
KELLY CORDAY
Program Director and host at KCBI Radio and Christian Nation
“I’ve known Bob for years, and his hunger for truth is one of the most impressive things about him. Anchored in Scripture and fascinating anecdotes, it is hard to envision working through this and remaining unchanged. Bob gives the reader a firm and much needed reminder—one that all too often gets lost in modern discourse—that the founder and perfecter of the Christian faith was single. The best part though? You don’t have to be single to enjoy this.”
RYAN BETHEA
Co-Host and producer of The Exorcist Files and Heaven Meets Earth
“In my conversations with singles, I find many wandering without purpose, wondering about their future, or waiting for their spouse to arrive. In Single-Minded, Bob shares scriptural insights and stories, gleaned from his own journey, that provide a solid foundation for singles to build their lives upon. If you find yourself in need of getting your heart more aligned with God’s, or how to walk more godly within your relationships, or discover more about living life fully for God’s purposes, Single-Minded is a resource that will encourage and equip you to get there!”

OUR HEARTS’ DESIRE: HOW OUR STORIES REVEAL THE THING WE WANT MOST
Why do we tell the same stories again and again? What is it about the hero, the villain, and the love interest in distress that continues to draw us in? Are these just storytelling tactics, or do they teach us something more? The truth is our stories reveal the cry of our heart—we want to live out this story ourselves.
In his debut work, Bob Wheatley reveals that all our favorite stories provide whispers of our longing for God. With references to The Dark Knight, The Hunger Games, the classic television sitcom Friends, and dozens of other stories from popular culture, Bob walks readers through the three acts of storytelling, revealing how every story we tell is a reflection of God’s ultimate love story.
praise for single-minded
While many of us long for a ‘love story’ on earth, this book makes it plain that our desire runs deeper. Our Hearts’ Desire is simple, yet engaging, fun, yet profound, and Bob’s heart for the Lord is evident in its pages. This book is a must-read for anyone who has dreamed of a love story, and even more so for those who are ready for one.”
JENNIFER MATTHEWS
Director of Strategic Partnerships at Stand Together, Sports Broadcaster
“As a professional author for thirty years, I create stories and characters for a living. From the moment I heard the concept of Our Hearts’ Desire, I knew Bob had done something special—telling the gospel message through our favorite stories. You’ll be hooked from the opening chapter!”

“Not everyone grew up in the church, and many of us don’t know where to begin, but Our Hearts’ Desire is a great primer for anyone who wants to begin their walk with God. I would recommend this book to anyone.”
TODD DURKIN

“Our Hearts’ Desire puts you IN the story. It is an epic journey where the hero fights for you. If you’ve ever craved for love… adventure… a story that takes your breath away, this book is a passionate reminder that you’re living that reality.”
