The Next Momosphere

Tuesday, May 13th, 2008 | Miscellaneous

The momosphere is one of the biggest subcultures in the blogosphere (I feel like that should be said with a deep announcer voice and dramatic music). No, but really, have you noticed how many “mommy blogs” there are and how popular they’re getting? Advertisers are picking up on the power of these blogs, moms everywhere are networking, and Christian (and homeschool) moms have a big corner on the market. I love reading mommy blogs because they are like glimpses into a future I hope for. :-) And I am inspired by godly women who write them.

But I’m noticing a smaller subculture, especially since I’m part of it! And that is blogs written by single Christian young women, quite a few of us in our late teens/early twenties. Sure, these blogs range in perspective, from stay-at-home daughters to college students to missionary teachers to career women. But there are a growing number in that “single Christian young woman” demographic, and it’s fun to be a part of it.

I want to highlight some of the bloggers in this demographic. I enjoy reading what they write. Some of their blogs I am subscribed to, while some I just stop by occasionally. Some I’ve found because they are frequent commenters here. If you’re a young woman in a similar age category (or perhaps a young man wanting to get know a godly young lady *tee hee*), you should check these blogs out!

FYI: I only included blogs with one author, not compilation blogs. Also, if you are in the same demographic and want me to include your blog on this list, let me know!

Oh yes, it is fun to be apart of this “single Christian young woman” demographic, and I am honored to get to know you and others in this group. Thank you for pointing out some of us and for your encouragement. :) I am so thankful for the privilege to use blogging as a way to proclaim Jesus and also to “fellowship” with so many awesome young ladies around the world!

Thank you…

Why do I get the feeling that every single male Christian blogger suddenly added a whole bunch more blogs to his feed reader? :-)

Be Blessed sisters. I hope your brothers always honour and cherish you as daughters of God

I just thought I would fill in the lacking info under the Thirsty Soul blog….I’m 23, I’m currently living at home with my family, but run my own business outside of home. :-)
Thanks for the links, Anna!

Businesswoman. Ha. That makes me laugh. I guess it’s correct, technically, since I’m my own boss….I run a care business for seniors and that title makes me feel like I should be wearing a powersuit…maybe not the most appropriate attire for my line of work! :0)
