Answer 1

Church. If your church doesn't have a good youth group then try going to another church just for the youth program and back for your regular service. Also you can talk to any other homeschoolers you know so you can talk to them about any groups they are involved in. Pray about it too. God wants you to have uplifting friends too. I'll also pray for you.

While your praying, look around. Do some stuff that is fun for you and maybe you'll find others who enjoy it too. You could get a job. Try whitnessing to other people. then there will be more Christians!

Answer 2

i know that there are a ton of homeschool groups that meet up that are christian......

my sisters are homeschooled, and they go to a school, just for homeschoolers, once a week...

then they can take classes like violin, orchestra, journaling, things like that....and all their friends are from there.....

just check out stuff in your community

Answer 3

go to ur church teen night if they have one or get involved in charity work or sports

Answer 4

Wanting tons of friends is not the sign of a social person, it's the sign of an insecure person.

As for finding Christian friends, you find Christian homeschool groups, go to church, attend youth group through the church and things like that.

Answer 5

Im christian too. :))

Answer 6

There are christian homeschool groups online. Many have places to sign up for pen-pals or e-pals. You might also try looking for a Christian Homeschool group in your area. You can also try this trick: when you make a new friend that uses bad words, ask them not to say them around you. Tell them it makes you feel bad inside. You can say that you want to be friends, but being a Christian, you don't like the way bad words and behaviors make you feel. Most of the time, they will stop or if they slip, will ask your forgiveness. This is one way you can be a good influence on someone who may need you to be just that! What a witness for Jesus!!

My kids are really involved with church and they volunteer at church with other teens. Find a big church youth group to get involved with. You will find nicer people to hang out with at church. My teens also participate in sports.

Best of Luck!

Answer 9

.....Church?

Answer 10

Talk to your pastor about joining the church's youth group.  If they do not have a youth group for your age group see if you can encourage your pastor to start one.

Pick one of your interests and try to find a local club that nourishes those interests.  You are bound to find others that you have things in common with.

Be a little more open minded when looking for friends.  I am not saying to hang out with the bad kids or compromise your morals, just don't always be checking a person's personal belief folder to see if they are worthy.

Answer 11

Sign up for religion education or some church events

Answer 12

Remember, even Jesus himself had contact with people that were declared "unworthy" or "undesireable" in his time. Don't isolate yourself off to "I'm only friends with Christians" because you will end up lonely and alone in life. While you can join youth group or other programs at your church, don't shut yourself off from trying other interests like joining a community sports team or club to make other friends too.  You can't be a witness if you shut yourself off from the world. If someone is doing something that you don't feel right about, just say "please don't say that around me" or "I'm not comfortable doing that", but it doesn't mean beating them over the head and acting "holier than thou" either.

Don't be so judgemental.

Answer 13

Your standards are WAY too high. You need to settle for what you can get.
