We each have our own set of requirements for a lifelong companion. Perhaps you’re drawn to other people who share your passion for dogs and cats, pia coladas, and getting wet when it rains. Perhaps you’re a sailor who’d like to find a first mate who shares your passion, or a couch potato who’d like to find a partner who can appreciate long nights spent watching their favorite shows. And that doesn’t even begin to touch on potential dealbreakers like whether they run hot or cold at night, how they load the dishwasher, or which direction they prefer to hang toilet paper. Despite your eccentricities, you may be looking for a life partner who follows your faith. Searching for love on a Christian dating site or app increases your chances of meeting someone who understands that important aspect of your life. This is because many dating apps and sites do have space for you to share your religion or denomination in some way. Some viable choices are listed below.

Someone matches there every 14 minutes, so maybe your turn is next.
