Walking in wisdom while pursuing God-centered love.
At Equally Yoked, we believe that every relationship built on faith should also be nurtured with wisdom. While we provide a sacred and intentional platform for believers to connect, we also encourage each member to protect their heart, privacy, and safety — both online and offline.
Here are important tips to help you navigate your dating journey safely:
🙏 Start with Prayer
Before engaging in any relationship, commit your intentions to God. Ask for discernment, wisdom, and clarity in every conversation you have. Proverbs 3:5–6 reminds us to trust in the Lord with all our hearts—He will direct our paths.
💬 Keep Initial Conversations Within the Platform.
Avoid moving to external communication apps too quickly.
Get to know the person better on Equally Yoked before sharing personal details.
Watch out for those who avoid meaningful conversations or pressure you to communicate outside the platform.
👤 Protect Your Personal Information.
Never share sensitive information like your home address, financial details, or passwords.
Use a username instead of your full name in public parts of your profile.
Be cautious when sharing your workplace or daily routines.
🧠 Trust, But Also Verify.
Take your time getting to know someone before placing full trust in them.
Be alert to inconsistencies in their stories or behavior.
Don’t ignore red flags or gut feelings—discernment is a gift from God.
📍 Plan Safe First Meetings.
Always meet in public places like coffee shops or church events.
Let a trusted friend or family member know where you’re going and who you’re meeting.
Arrange your own transportation and keep your phone fully charged.
❗Watch Out for Scams and Manipulative Behavior.
Be cautious of:
Anyone who asks for money, no matter their story.
Those who avoid video calls or in-person meetings.
Emotional manipulation or pressure to move the relationship too fast.
If something feels off, report it immediately to our support team. We take the safety of our members seriously.
🤝 Set Boundaries and Communicate Clearly.
Discuss your values, boundaries, and intentions early on.
Don’t feel pressured to compromise your beliefs or purity for the sake of a relationship.
Respect yourself and expect the same from others.
🛐 Stay Accountable.
Share your dating journey with a trusted Christian friend, mentor, or pastor. Accountability adds a layer of safety and spiritual maturity.
❤️ Remember Your Worth.
You are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14). Any relationship that doesn’t reflect Christ-like love, respect, and honor isn’t for you. Wait on the Lord—His timing is perfect.
Report and Block.
If you feel uncomfortable or harassed by another member, use the Report or Block feature immediately. Our moderation team is here to support and protect you.
Final Word
At Equally Yoked, we’re committed to creating a faith-based environment where Christian singles can form lasting, God-glorifying relationships. As you step into this journey, walk boldly—but wisely.
Let love be sincere, let your spirit be guarded, and let Christ be at the center of every connection you make.
