Interracial Dating Among Christian Singles

Interracial dating is no longer taboo in today’s society, as witnessed by the many interracial dating service websites like Christian Mingle and eHarmony Dating Service . However, dating across racial and ethnic lines still remains a controversial subject in some quarters.

While Christian single interracial dating or married couples can live peacefully in most urban societies of the world, they may still be stigmatized in rural areas, and sadly even within the confines of their own church and family.

Therefore, any single Christian thinking about interracial dating should prepare for success by asking themselves the following questions:

Interracial Dating Question Checklist

  • What would your family and friends say if you told them you were dating someone from a different race or ethnicity?
  • If family and friends react negatively to interracial dating, what would be your response?
  • How will you and your interracial date respond to societal disapproval and outright racism? Prejudices could come in forms ranging from staring at a restaurant or church, to ostracizing and outright physical threats.
  • Have you and your interracial dating partner openly discussed cultural differences, and their implications if the dating relationship were to culminate in marriage?

Openly and honestly go over the above questions first by yourself, and then together with your interracial dating interest. This exercise will give you an indication of whether or not this interracial dating relationship could be successful.

The longest lasting interracial dating relationships and marriages are those which are able to weave the best of both cultures into unison with each other.

Finally, despite the increase in the number of interracial dating singles, many find it difficult to meet others in their everyday walk of life.This one of the several reasons why online interracial dating sites like eHarmony Dating Service have become popular.

Just in case you were wondering, all of the dating services reviewed on Christian Dating Service PLUS! have large search databases that makes finding an interracial date in your local area an easier task.

If have dated or are dating someone from a different ethnic or cultural background, please consider helping other singles by sharing your experiences with interracial dating.

    As it states in the Bible: the world will fall into sin more and more the further we move forward in time. We seem to be more tolerant of things we know are wrong. There are two entities that are seductively crawling themselves into a lot of churches. One is homosexuality, in which most true Christians still stand against, and the other is miscegenation. Both consist of a couple and ive noticed in a lot of non denominational churches you’ll see a rise in these two problems.

    The main issue is that mixed race couples and same sex couples see this loving and accepting atmosphere in these Christian churches and they see it as a place of refuge.

    I, myself, have met several mixed race couples in church and they are very polite and easy to get along with. I could say the same for a homosexual couple, but smiles and greetings are not going to get one saved and on the right track.

    I don’t believe that mixed races are intended by God in any way. Even the twelve tribes of the Jewish people were not to intermingle and they were basically the same race of people! This has nothing to do with “superiority” or who’s better than who, but a matter of keeping what God made in tact.

    So, What about Ruth and Boaz; Esther and King Ahasuerus; Joseph and Asenath; Moses and Zipporah, etc?

    Hello Nikki and everyone,?

    My name is Martin and I live in the USA.

    I like to talk with people from all walks of life, as I like to live it to the fullest. Something interesting about me is that I was born in South East Europe, Bulgaria. I have variety of interests in my life as a young 24 years old single Christian university student. I will be glad to talk with anyone who wants to share his or her views about Christian single or married life and international dating too. I think there is a lot to be said on the subject. I enjoy travelling, and I hope so to be able, one day to get on the Greyhound bus and take a long journey across America. I know there are marvelous places to visit. There is always time for old Europe anyways?.

    If someone wants to reply to me to share their passion about God with me or express views on interracial dating, love, and relationships or simply wants to make a good Christian friend from Bulgaria, write me at: mladec156@hotmail.com

    I will be happy to write you back.

    Best wishes and May God bless your hearts?
