Introduction

In this blog post, I will discuss dating in the digital age and how I define it.

Dating In The Digital Age Is More Than Online Dating

It has probably not been unnoticed by any living person today about the revolution

that has occurred during the last decade.

I am thinking of the digital revolution, which of course have brought some changes

to our lives that we wouldn’t even imagine back then.

The first “wave” gave us dating websites.

Social media have changed our lives in ways we couldn’t imagine a couple of years ago.

Who would have thought that these sites could mean new possibilities besides the

traditional ways of dating and open up the entire World for us (or at least: most of it)

a decade ago? These were the second wave (also known as Web 2.0).

Dating In The Digital Age Are In The Third Wave Now

The transformation from the second to the third wave means that how singles are dating

will change now. The introduction of apps on our smartphones and tablets

is amazing since we now have the World available at our fingertips any given time of

the day and night.

What Does This Mean For Christian Singles Today?

It means that Christians can find their spouses on the other side of the World.

I won’t say that it wasn’t the case before but today it is a lot easier to do so.

The problem with these apps is that they are fixating on the looks of people.

A popular app first shows the picture of a single nearby and then you can swipe left

or right depending on if you like that person or not. It’s shallow and a real problem.

Especially for Christians since Jesus Christ tells us that we should not judge!

The Ugly Truth That These Apps Teaches People

The truth is that these apps a people to be shallow and look on their looks,

not to their behaviour, attitudes, moral and ethics (also known as the heart).

Of course, we are all humans and even Christians do get shallow and quite judgemental

now and then. I know that I have made some presumptions about people that was totally wrong.

When that happened and when it happens I always thank God for teaching me this valuable lesson.

This is, unfortunately, a part of our sinful nature, that we judge each other constantly.

Dating in the digital age hasn’t made us better humans but rather enforced a behaviour that

has been the same since the days of Adam and Eve.

Next blog post will be published on the 4th of June 2016.

It will be about the three ways of dating.

See you then,
