Christian Personals
By Stephanie Cook
There are many more resources for finding the right mate today than there were as little as 20 years ago. One of the methods that enjoys a great deal of popularity among singles is the personals both in newspapers and online. While meeting and establishing a relationship with someone through an advertisement has definite drawbacks, stories are often told of such associations leading to a happily married life. One of the first things to consider, once youve made the decision to utilize the personal ads in order to find that special someone, is the construction of a good ad that will attract the person whos most likely to be the best match. From a Christian perspective, this offers greater challenges, since the code of living that the Church dictates isnt often popular within a less spiritual society such as ours.
Before beginning the writing process, its necessary to identify the particular qualities that youre hoping for in a mate. If you cant pinpoint specifics, take a look at the friends that youve chosen to surround yourself with, and youll get a better idea of what types of things to look for in a mate when you realize which qualities have appealed to you through friendships. Its important to keep the Christian perspective in focus here even more so when choosing a potential life partner.
When writing your ad, be sure to list the qualities that you have to offer to a relationship; mention hobbies and activities that you find enjoyable, be completely honest about who you are and what youre looking for in a partner (do not compromise your Christian morals or principles, even if theyre not so popular in todays world) and above and beyond all else make it understood that youre a Christian looking for a Christian mate. This statement, alone, implies that youre abiding by the Churchs expectations and that as a good Christian you fully intend to live by them. You dont have to appear rigid; just make yourself clear in a friendly, lighthearted way, and youll be attracting other Christians in no time.
