SingleC-Single Christian Network

3 Comments  

Since 1991, SingleC, also known as Single Christian Network, claims to have been meeting the matchmaking needs of Christian dating singles of all backgrounds. One of the oldest online Christian dating services, Single Christian Network states they have thousands of single Christians from all denominations and age groups.

SingleC clearly states its goal is to help Christians singles who are looking to find lasting relationships and true love. The only problem with this, is that Single Christian Network simply DOES NOT deliver!

Our bottom line recommendation: While Single Christian Network sounds nice, you’d be better off trying one of the dating sites listed below:

Christian Mingle
Christian Cafe
Christian Cupid
eHarmony
Perfectmatch

How SingleC Works

Single Christian Network , like eHarmony Dating Service, offers a 10 day Free trial membership, which allows you to take advantage of most of the dating site’s perks. All you need to do is complete your own profile, which takes less than 10 minutes. Here are some of the features during the SingleC free trial:

• Ability to add your own personals photos
• Capability to search SingleC’s large data base by many different criteria including area, age, church affiliation, physical appearance, who’s online, photo’s only, etc.
• Online SingleC prayer/community bulletin boards where you can fellowship and share with Christian Singles
• Online Christian singlec.com chat rooms
• Ability to send e-mail messages within SingleC’s own system

Note: The only restriction during your free trial period is that SingleC (Single Christian Network) trusts you on the honor system not to share your outside e-mail address with others until you upgrade your membership. What are they nuts…or just expecting us to act like Christians?

SingleC Costs

By the way, SingleC refers to a full-fledged member as a “financial supporter”. They have several upgrade packages, which are comparable to most other Christian dating sites:

Monthly………………..$19.95
3 Months………………$39.95 (Save 33%)
6 Months………………$69.95 (Save 42%)

1 Year………………….$99.95 (Save 58%)
Lifetime………………..$144.95 (They say you save big here)

SingleC Kudos and Crowns

• At least they mean well…I think
• They think the best of you by trusting you to be honest with the e-mail system
• Easy to use database, and full of cool features

SingleC Pitchforks

• Most of the matches you get are recycled or way out of the area…like on a different continent.

Safety Dating Tips for Christian Singles

1 Comment  

So you’ve decided to try Online Christian Personals. Great! Now let’s talk about safety dating tips to keep you from ending up in some whacko’s trunk!

Most online Christian personals, dating sites and Christian chatrooms provide some online safety dating tips, and do their best to ensure members’ privacy and safety while using their particular dating services. However, since none of these Christian dating sites can 100% guarantee that your next date will not be Ted Bundy II, Christian singles need to be proactive when it comes to dating safety. Here are our five top safety dating tips:

Safety Dating Tip 1

The Bible says it’s a wise and safe thing to have many counselors. So seek out several respected Christian friends and family members who would be willing to offer dating tip advice and accountability. These folks should be seen as a dating safety resource only, not as people you let run your life. While all dating decisions should be yours, hearing other opposing views can help you come to a right and godly dating decision.

Safety Dating Tip 2

Don’t be in a such a rush to meet your potential soulmate in person. Take it slow. If the Lord is really leading you in this relationship, there will be plenty of time together. Instead, use your online chatroom or e-mail experiences as a great way to get to know each other better. Ask questions about the other party’s beliefs, interests, jobs and family, always being on guard for inconsistencies.

One of my good friends who recently got engaged after initally meeting through eHarmony waited over six months before meeting his date in person. By that time, the two had already built great emotional and spiritual communication bridges.

Safety Dating Tip 3

Never publish or give out your real full name, address, home telephone number or private e-mail address to someone you just met online. This precaution will go a long way toward precluding any potetial harrassment or stalking. Quite a few Christian dating Services like Christian Cafe, for example, provide private in house e-mail accounts. If the partiuclar Christian matchmaker site doesn’t, simply create a free account with Yahoo or Hotmail and use a nickname or first name only.

Are we being overly cautious with this safety dating tip? Yeah. But your safety and that of your family’s (especially if you are a single parent dating) is more than worth it. Yes, you can be loving and wise simultaneously.

Safety Dating Tip 4

When you do decide to meet your Christian Date, make sure the location is a public place you know is safe. And while you’re at it, consider bringing along a trusted Christian guy or Christian girlfriend to assess the dating safety situation. Yeah, I know this dating tip could dampen the excitement of the initial meeting. But you could also pre-arrange a plan to have your friend split when things appear kosher. If your date has “a problem” with this arrangement, it should send up a red flag to you.

An alternative to the above dating tip is to arrange for a friend to call your cell phone 20 or 30 minutes into your date. If things are going well, great! If your senses tell you this date is not safe to continue, you could use the phone call to cut short the night.

While we’re on the subject of cell phones, you may want to consider purchasing a Global Positioning System (GPS) cell phone, that will be able to track your location wherever you go.

Safety Dating Tip 5

Seek the Lord for discernment and leading. This is wisest safety dating tip of all, even though it is the simplest. Pray for wisdom and guidance, and Jesus will direct you. (Proverbs 3:5+6, James 1:5). If at any time during the dating process you feel uncomfortable deep down in your heart, this could be the Holy Spirit prompting you to move one. Don’t feel embarrassed or worried what the other person may think. Your safety must come first, since no one else can take care of that.

What Christian Single Girls Want in a Guy

60 Comments  

What do Christian single girls look for in a single Christian guy when contemplating a soulmate or marriage partner? This question always seems to percolate in any singles groups I have ever attended or led. We found some online surveys about Christian single girls (ages 18-70) you may find quite interesting.

Okay guys, so you’re no babe magnet? Don’t worry about it because the good news here is that single Christian girls of all ages appear to put physical attraction behind four other qualities that you may have. If you don’t have any of these, you may want to consider becoming a eunuch.

Top Dating Qualities Christian Girls Want

Here are the top five qualities single Christian girls look for in a Christian single guy:

1. Christian single women want a guy who is passionate about his Lord. Nothing is more attractive to a single Christian girl than a guy who is in love with Jesus, and passionate about following Him. A guy sold out for Jesus lets the single Christian girl know that he is not afraid of big commitments as in, ahem…marriage. I can’t believe I just wrote the “M” word.
2. Christian single girls put a high value on a guy who can honestly share feelings. She wants to be able to trust that her potential husband is a man of his word, and faithful to her. It also doesn’t hurt that he is not afraid to cry while watching sad movies. Look, most of us have been burned by fakers and liars, and it hurts big time. For some of you guys who do have a problem in this area, I suggest listening to that old Billy Joel tune, Honesty, and doing a Bible word study on the word.
3. Christian single girls are attracted to a guy with a good sense of humor. Life has lots of bumps in the road, and a sense of humor will help her keep perspective on what is really important (Col. 3:1) when the going gets tough. Plus, these kind of folks are just fun to be around.
4. Single Christian girls are looking for a guy who can provide a stable environment. Translation: A single woman finds a man appealing who has a steady job and loving relationships with his immediate family members. This shows the single Christian girl that the guy is dependable, consistent and able to provide for a family. This issue of provision is extremely important for a any single woman looking for a mate. Look, we’re not talking Donald Trump here, okay? As my one Christian single girlfriend says, “If he has an operating driver’s license and a job, that’s good enough for me.”
5. Coming in at fifth place is the issue of physical attractiveness. Christian single girls relay that it’s important (but not most important) that they be somewhat physically attracted to the man they marry. In other words, when a single Christian girl looks upon you, she should find “something” appealing about you physically. You may not be a Brad Pitt, but you almost certainly have at least one feature that is above average in appearance.

Well, guys, there you have it. Whether you meet someone through an online Christian Dating/Matchmaking site or church singles group, what Christian single girls want in a guy remains the same.

Are you a Christian single girl or guy with a different take on the issue? Feel free to submit your dating comments.
