Christian Alternatives to MySpace

MySpace is one of the most popular social networking sites. Many parents and Christians have shied away from using MySpace because of the foul language, and the pedophiles that have successfully lured children away from their homes. There are
 some ways you can protect yourself on MySpace, but this article is going to focus on some Christian alternatives.1. YourChristianSpace.com: This site is very easy to sign up for. The overall design of the site I think would appeal mostly to teenagers. What I like about this site is its forum. There you can discuss more than just your usual things. There are many Christian topics you can get involved in such as the end times, and the birth pangs of Matthew 24. They also have a section for prayer. You can request prayer or answer and pray for someone else. This site has everything else you would expect to find on a networking site: Blogs, Forums, Music, Your own page, Classifieds, Quizzes, and Events.2. MyPraize.com: This site has over 69,000 registered users you can network with. When you go to sign up you have to click standard user or band user. Most people don’t know that MySpace was created specifically for musicians. It just grew to be more than that. With MyPraize you not only have to confirm your email address after signing up, but you have to wait for an administrator to approve it. This isn’t good if you are impatient, but I do believe it is better to be safe than sorry. I don’t see anything special about this site that sets it apart from the rest except for the extra security measures.3. Christianblog.com: This site has a little unique twist. It is mostly a blogging site. You blog and participate in other people’s blogs. All blogs are monitored and all foul language, negative talk, etc. will be deleted. The site is dedicated to families and keeping the site clean. You can do more than just blog, however, you can chat, post pictures, make friends, and more. I think this site is a lot of fun and one of my favorites so far.
