LoginA new dating website was launched earlier this month to help missionaries and other Christians serving overseas to find a spouse who understands their global calling. Thus far, more than people have joined the online dating community, CalledTogether. Gerin St. Claire, one of the founders of the dating site, told NPR's Arun Rath that they want to help Christians find their right match so they don't have to choose between serving overseas or staying in the United States to find a marriage partner. But we hope to be able to offer this resource so that they don't have to make that decision," he said. Claire added that while Christians are serving overseas to make the world a better place, his organization wants "to empower them to stay there," instead of returning home because they're lonely or want to find their soul mate. You might be there for five to eight years before you really know the local language well enough to really converse and build a meaningful community. For a lot of missionaries it's difficult, in general, to have close connections.
There I was, standing at the entrance of my church for the zillionth time. Waiting for Bob, or maybe it was John or it could have been Dave. It didn't matter because there seemed to be a pattern — a pattern where I would meet this great guy,and he would tell me "Sure, I go to church," which, of course, was enough information for me to date him.
Called Together is a network of thousands of singles serving God's purposes among the nations. If you want to meet others who share your vision and calling, then come join us.
That is, until friends started asking me these questions, and I discovered more people — whom I never thought would do so — were using them! The simple answer to the first question is — Yes, Christians can use dating apps. This leads me to the second question, but instead of giving you my answer, let me share my thought process and hopefully that will help you come to a decision for yourself.
