Yes! How is it we are writing & teaching about finding happiness in our devotion to Jesus? Why are we not looking for the numbers that show following Jesus and being community with our church family provides healthy and happy lives? we need to be questioning why we are looking there and why we are looking in the other lanes.

I very much dislike the implications of the quotes you have taken from Wilcox's and Breakpoint's articles (no surprise there, "preaching to the choir" and such). However, I find myself quite disturbed that the reason for the conflict is not so much about their portrayal of marriage (and of singleness as its absence), but because they seem to claim that living "as Christians in this cultural moment" is more about maximising one's personal happiness than actually seeking to live like Christ.
