Let me explain why the four most obvious answers don't work for us:

1) Join a christian club/group at your college.
We go to community college, no Campus Crusade/Christian groups

2) Try a Bible Study.
I never liked this setting, meeting in someone's house under certain terms in a small group discussing various lessons. Great for learning, not for making friends.

3) Church.
My buds and I feel guilty when we flirt with girls at church, it's just an awkward feeling.

4) Try an internet dating site.
I think I would find it hard to carry on a relationship with a picture on a computer screen or a voice on the phone.

These were all answers we got a while ago, we each tried them out with no luck.

Smart alec responses are not appreciated.

I've been told a couple of times to look for a girl with a great personality and not worry so much about religion.

I did that, met an amazing girl, who happened to be a hardcore Wiccan.

Let's just say after a lot of unneccessary drama I've since vowed to keep myself involved with Christians only.

I met my wife at church, but the flirting didn't happen there. We were fortunate enough to attend a church that had a Singles' Ministry; we went out on many group dinners before I asked her on a one-on-one. In fact, we were just friends for a year before we started dating.

So church can work, you just don't make your move there. Use church social events to get to know someone instead; then you have a better idea of whether or not you want to go on to something more intimate.

Think about where the Christian girls in your town might hang out. They are probably all around you--at the bookstore, the coffee shop, etc. They are probably even at the bars sometimes--just hopefully/probably not booty dancing, wasted at 2:00am.

I would try meeting girls like you normally would--in those settings. Then on the first date (or before) ask her where she goes to church. If you get a blank stare, you know you should move along.

But don't give up on church settings either--yeah you probably shouldn't scope it out like you're at a singles bar or something. But you can and should develop all sorts of friendships within that fellowship. And those can (and often do) later lead to the best relationships. I know lots of couples who met in church, but none of them started out just being asked out or flirted with before they knew the other person.

Couple meet in many places, the 3 most common are:

School (which you go to one)
Work
Church (which you have ruled out).
Instead of worrying about linking up with a girl, start doing the things you enjoy, if (when) you happen to meet a girl doing the same thing you enjoy, then at least you have something in common.

Maybe if you would be more interested in the woman's personality rather than just making sure she's a christian you'd have better luck. I'm not going to say that one religion is better over another, I'm just saying that you're unneccessarily limiting yourself by saying you need a christian girl.

First and foremost pray about it. God will guide you to what is best for you. Also my church never really had a good singles ministry. So I went to a Calvary Chapel that did. The ironic part is I never dated anyone from there but I found that my date life picked up once I put myself out there.
