This
site is fairly new, but wow!! Looks hot, great layout, and has
substantive content. It offers insightful and original articles
on a wide range of topics -- mostly Christian life-oriented.
They tend to be very practical -- for husbands, wives, youth,
and families. The content seems to be updated almost daily and
so you'll often find something of interest to you. Has a nice
community too with chat rooms and newsletters. They have a store
that is integrated within many areas and is not too annoying.
Definitely a place to go...and go a lot! Highly recommended!!
[We are sad to report that iBelieve...possibly
the best Christian portal yet on the web went bankrupt and shutdown.
Hopefully there's a lesson to learn here.] |

This
popular site offers a wide variety of links organized in a very
easy-to-use manner. Quite a variety of stuff. Has a top 30 site
listing which offers some great Christian website to check out.
Originating here is an ICQ chat (which other websites link to)
which usually has at least 20-30 people on it. Has some unique
aspects like postcards, arcade games, and a prayer board. The
site is lacking in original material and it does not seem up-to-date.
It does not have much original material and the site news updates
every month or so. Highly recommend to visit. |

Going
here, you will find one of the largest Christian websites that
many people do not know but it is quite a large community. You'll
find a strong chat system and lots of Christian-oriented newsletters
that you can subscribe too. They offer a popular singles system
that seems really good. Their directory of Christian websites
is huge -- over 17,000 strong. You can also create your own
home page. SInce they are such a big site, they feature talk
shows with Christian celebrities. And you'll find some great
sister sites like CTestimony (Christian testimonies) and PrayerWeb
(receive prayer or pray for others). While the look is good,
it is nothing outstanding. The site tends to focus too much
on itself, and is lacking news or web search or much original
material. If you're looking for a community though, this is
the place! |

First
look (and second look) at this site and you might be overwhelmed.
So much content and much of it duplicated on the main page.
It does have a good search engine and web directory of Christian
sites. You will also find many of the links on the front page
going to subsections of the site -- and that is one of this
sites greatest features: lots of pretty good quality places.
Like singles, friendship, cartoon, chat, shopping, etc. It's
ranking of popular pages seems to be broken (with the top site
always averaging over 330 hits each day?) and not as many useful
or interesting links as COnline provides in their Top 30. This
place is also lacking in general community, although the singles
might have some. You might find annoying all the ads and sponsors
fill nearly half of the space used on the front page. Nice touches
of the site include offering reviews of 3 sites per week on
different subjects (ie. singles, family websites, bible...).
Now, if they just organized this better and made it look cool,
then this could be a great Christian website. |

This
is a standard Christian directory site that looks really sharp
and adds some twists and original material to stand out from
the pack. For one, it rates sites (like CyberXian) with gold
stars from 1 to 5. But many are highly rated and if you look
at the comments, it is not very helpful in determining if it
is a good site or what they really think. You will find a good
search engine here too for searching the directory. The site
shows promise with the innovative Jesus
Project that tries to gather city info, concerts, events,
etc. for many cities across world. This seems rather new and
needs more content. We recommend this for a search site and
one to definitely stop by if you are looking for content. |

This
site kind of looks like Yahoo -- very plain text look with minimal
graphics. And unlike most sites reviewed here, this covers secular
and Christian content. The one thing here that is really nice
is that instead of lists and lists of different subjects, you
will find just one click for most topics. They have picked the
best website for nearly 100 subjects. This could be good or
bad depending on your perspective; they offer a search engine
if you really want to find other topics. Also, features weather,
stocks, news, business news, and sports news which makes this
a great starting page.
If you dig deeper in the site, you will find lots of great faith
aids, answers to questions, and even advice. From resources
on equipping you in your faith, to how to grow to resources
about cult/religions to suicide/depression to the practical
like job search or dating. So this is easy to use, has a lot
of good material and resources. But no community or slick graphics. |

This
site has developed over the years with more content and features.
The main page has a decent layout, but you may find it lacking
in diversity and content unless you are into web design or hosting.
Much
of the content though goes off site too. .Once
you enter their directory, you'll find a well organized Christian
links and the ability to search it easily. Features of the site
include a chat system, a good singles program, an active prayer
center, and shopping. However, for all that's good, the site
is not easy to navigate. You'll have to click on dots instead
of links in the main page. It seems like a first generation
website that could use an overhaul in the look and layout. You
may be annoyed by the abundance of advertising and income opportunities...unless
of course they interest you, then click away. |
