Interracial Dating Among International Divisions
August 27, 2006
Interracial dating among Christian singles is skyrocketing worldwide. Christian singles are breaking down the barriers against all the cultural, racial and ethnic hatred and violence we see in the world today.
All of this bears witness to our Scripture of the day found in Galations 3:28, which rings out: “There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.”
Is that amazing or what? The most wonderful thing about Jesus’ love is that it transcends all language, culture, race, sex and status. In part, that’s why I see Christian interracial dating as a testimony of Jesus’ overwhelming love.
Whether Jew or Arab, Chinese or Japanese, American or Russan, Black or White, we are all one in Jesus, and brothers and sisters because of Him. That’s why the world needs to continue to see our lights shining in this present darkness.
As you go on your way this week, think about this verse and pray for your single Christian brothers and sisters who are living in difficult times of testing.

Interracial Dating and the Christian Church
June 16, 2006
While a recent Gallup Poll on USA interracial dating found that over 95% of 18-29 year-olds approve of dating between the races, only 45% of the over 65 crowd agree. Less than a decade before, both of these age groups had significantly less approval for interracial dating. I guess we should have predicted these survey findings when even Bob Jones University lifted its interracial dating ban six years ago.
Singles generally only date those with whom they have had regular interaction. Although the Christian Church sadly remains a largely segregated place on Sundays, this is certainly less the case due to the proliferation of the multicultural megachurch within the last decade.
Overall, it will be interesting to see how the rise in multicultural megachurches effect interracial dating among Christian singles.
