Online Dating Safety for Christians

Online dating opens wonderful doors for meeting fellow believers, but it's important to stay safe. Top safety tips: 1. **Never share financial information** — No genuine person will ask for money early on. 2. **Video call before meeting** — Confirm they are who they say they are. 3. **Meet in public places** — For your first few dates, choose busy, well-lit locations. 4. **Tell someone your plans** — Let a friend know where you're going and who you're meeting. 5. **Trust your instincts** — If something feels wrong, it probably is. Report suspicious behaviour. 6. **Take your time** — Scammers create urgency. Genuine connections can wait. At Covenant Matchmaker, your safety is our top priority.
