10 Christian Dating Apps and Sites to Help You Find Your Soulmate

When looking for that special someone to walk with as your partner in life, we all have certain parameters. Maybe you go for the tall, dark and handsome types, or you want someone who shares your love of dogs or cats, piña coladas and getting caught in the rain. Maybe you live for sailing and need a first mate who does too, or prefer to marathon your entire Netflix queue in one go and seek a soulmate who's also fond of attaching themselves to the couch for hours on end. And that doesn't even get into potential dealbreakers like the way they load the dishwasher, which direction they like the toilet paper to hang or if they run hot or cold at night. But all quirky tendencies aside, if you're a person of faith, you may be in the market for a partner who shares your faith tradition too. While many dating apps and sites do have space for you to share your religion or denomination in some way, looking for love on a Christian dating site or app specifically increases your chances of matching with someone who can understand that very important aspect of your life. Here are some good options.

The largest and most well-known dating app for Christians, this Spark Network member calls itself the number-one platform for Christian marriages in the world. And with the largest number of Christian members of any dating site out there, you've got pretty decent odds.
