 | CaverBlake said My wife died after a two year battle with breast cancer. This left me with three small children ages 4, 6 and 9. Dating is hard enough, but with three children it's even harder. I know plenty of you understand that. It takes time to get to know someone; and you don't have that kind of time with children. I didn't know when I would find someone, but I knew that eventually it would happen. And I knew it would be easier if I wasn't just counting on randomly running into someone. So I started to search for Christian based dating sites. I signed up on BigChurch and over the course of a few months I had email conversations with several people here. For the most part they were not in my local area, and eventually the emails would stop. Then I received an email that changed my life. 1000 miles away a wonderful woman had noticed that I read her profile, so she read mine. And then she wrote to me. I was blown away by her letter. She had obviously really read what I had written. And when she wrote back there was so much thought and depth, so much of herself, in what she wrote. She made comments in that first letter based on things I had written in my profile. She shared things from her life that tied in to things in mine. Her words expressed her humor and her faith in what she wrote. She was so joyful and energetic. Her enthusiasm was awesome. One of the things that really got my attention was the way she wrote. There was nothing sloppy or careless ... nothing rushed. Her grammar and spelling were both excellent. That and the content of her letter showed that she cared about what she wrote ... that she wasn't just slapping out quick emails to people. It also showed a certain level of intelligence and command of the English language. With three small children it would be nice to have someone around that could help with the homework at least! The power of this type of a service is that you have a way of filtering some of the things you want and don't want. You can choose who you want to respond to. You can look for quality without having to go through quantity. I love her, my children love her, and we are getting married next summer. I could say more, but will just say thank you BigChurch! |
| cheekycanuck said The day after I turned 40, , my life changed completely. I was surfing on BC and saw this guy and decided to just chat with him. We chatted, ,, and very quickly it was apparent that we had alot in common. We both loved to laugh, and his sense of humor made me laugh constantly. We chatted for a couple months and in sept 2005, we decided to meet. So he flew here and we hit it off. He traveled here a few times and then at christmas I went there to meet his three children. We were a family. To make a long story short, ,, , November 2006, we officially became a family when we were married, including the kids in the wedding. I had given up hope, till that day. And now, have never been happier, , thanks BC | |
 | Andeearty said I had finally given up. There were no datable decent guys on Big Church. After another failed attempt with another guy who was not who he said he was, I was through with online all together. I switched my profile to friends and resigned myself to finding someone the old fashioned way. Dating 1000 people and hoping one of them works out. Then I was contacted by a guy that I thought would be a nice friend, a methodist pastor named Ephesians. Little did I know that that man would be the best boyfriend I have ever had and in future will be the best husband I could of even imagined. God knew what he was doing when he put us together, we are total opposites but work beautifully together. I cant wait to spend the rest of my life with this man and it never would of happened if I hadnt given up and then opened up to a "new friend". |
| THEGUYFROMCANADA said Late Dec 2004 both myself and My Soulmate joined BigChurch.com - we were 2, 000 miles apart at the time, and living in different Countries. On Jan 5th I saw her Profile and immediately sent an email to this Special Lady. She responded back and from that point onward we connected Wonderfully. Although she had her email filter set to block anybody more than 60 miles away, God had planned for us to meet. She chose to "check my message out" and from that day forward we have connected everyday We both were believing to find a Parnter that would love us and Love God. Without BigChurch we would have never met. We are working through the immigration process for her to move to Canada, but we enjoy "The BEST" by talking and praying together each night. By October 2005 we got engaged and were married December 16th, 2005 in California. We enjoy a unity, Love, Peace, and Purpose in God, and we look forward to living together in the fall of 2006. God made us with "no mistakes", we have purpose and design and I can truly say that My Wife and I were "made for each other" and we are excited about living life, and serving God together. Here's some advice -- no guesswork.Trust God, Step Out in Faith, and trust God to show you, and then be "Godly Together" -- the Result will be HIS Blessing upon your friendship and a BLESSED future life together. LADIES, don't settle for a Guy with a Remote Control surgically implanted in his hand...don't shortchange yourself for the sake of Companionship (unless you just want someone to share popcorn with). Listen and watch for any flags - He should take the Lead in Godliness. MEN-Your home should have Peace and you should have unity with your wife, but that only comes if you LOVE HER above all else - don't miss the boat on this - it's God's design for MEN TO LOVE THEIR WIFE...UNCONDITIONALLY, LIKE CHRIST LOVED THE CHURCH...Never Forsaking, always Faithful to Her.(She'll respect you and take care of you for Loving Her this way) All the Best to Everyone using BigChurch...we will always remember "Where WE first Met" as we look back over all our happy memories together.

 | Kristta said Hello everybody !!! On Feb./7/2005 I met a very special guy on-line. By next sunday we got our 1st date and one week later our 1st kiss. After that our relationship started growing and we just couldn't stop seeing each other everyday. After lots of praying we got married 10 months after we met, on Dec./17/2005. This is by far the most wonderful blessing God have gave us. Thank you BigChurch.com !!! Blessings, Kristta and DjaliZwan23 |
 | blackbeltforever said Thank the Lord for Big Church and its efforts in providing opportunities for Christian singles to meet their soul mate. I can not thank you enough, with God's grace and guidience, I have found my friend, lover, and soulmate for life. Leslie and I have so much in common and have already begun building our life together. May God bless Big Church and all those that work to ensure that Christians have a positive way to meet someone. I was very skeptical about meeting someone online, and for that matter on a dating website. I can now say that God works miracles in mysterious ways, and this has been by far the most unique opportunity that I have experienced in my dating life. Nobody can ever tell me that you can not find love and find your soulmate online or though a dating service. Thanks again and my God Bless your works and may God Bless Big Church. |
 | ATimeToLove said In March of 2003, not too long after I joined Big Church, I had this idea to search the profiles for guys in my area to see if any were still in contact with Big Church. To my suprise, Decumanus replied to me the day after I sent him a note. We agree to meet up, but since his profile mentioned he had a son, I asked if he would be willing to bring his son with him. To make a long story short, we were married on April 30, 2006. Thank you Big Church for allowing us to meet! |
| Iam4Messiah said About 2 and a1/2 years ago I met a Christian lady through chats at BC.And we soon learned, that we both loved God above all else.We let God make the decisions in our lives. I then proposed to her, and she accepted in Feb 2004. In Feb of 2005 I travelled to Germany, and we got married by city-hall.Our next step was to introduce my bride to Canada, so we spent our first Christmas as a married couple in Canada. She returned to Germany in late january 2006, to finalize a lot of "Red-Tape", and is returning to Canada for good on May 19/06. And we will have a Candle-light church wedding on Jul 8th/2006, after which we will tour extensively (about three months) through Canada and the US. (No this is not a honeymoon, as our honeymoon started the day we got engaged-28Feb 04 and will cease, when The Father calls us home.) As I have my own office within the church I serve (Baptist), I am preparing myself, and my wife for the job ahead--I am in the process, through prayers, to accept a Pastor's position in Western Kentucky , USA.And joyfully, we will serve our Lord. I was once asked by a fellow pastor, who at age 65 retired from his church, to enjoy life, and his words were to me : Karl, when will you retire and enjoy life?" I replied:"I enjoy life serving our Lord and I retire, when He calls me home." I like to close with a few simple words of advice to all my Christian friends at BC. "The couples, who pray together--stay together." and as I love to evangelize , here is a quote, that I wrote in 1999--"It never rains believers, so if you want to gain believers, you have to plant the seeds." I am joyful to serve Him, I am Rev.Dr. Iam4Messiah | |

 | imavessel said I did want to let you know that YES-GOD can truly work through even this!!! Ha ha. I got on Big Church perhaps end of November, beginning of December and DID NOT GET ON TO FIND A MATE- or even a date. In fact, I put for friendship and/or penpal in my profile! I was at a broken part of my life and merely looking for people to talk to who believed in God. Period! Quickly found the "Blog" area--- and began writing. & TRUST ME ON THIS ONE---- from beginning to current, God bringing this together is extremely well documented in my "imavessel" blog! I started out saying the Lord already had my mate covered. "Someone was coming & coming just for me". Agh- true. -But- in this case, the Lord used BigChurch as the vehicle. So thank you! & To all the great friends I have made here: WOW, Look what the Lord has done!!! imavesse, OH |
