It's mostly old people and their grandkids at my church. And a few lone young men. These great potential wives at church you speak of... they ain't at mine. I'm not looking for one, but I have certainly taken note this because of all of the talk around here about finding a partner at church. I feel safe to assume church just isn't popular with young women these days. Just go to church and find a wife they say... yeah buddy get in line. The demand vastly outweighs the almost nonexistent supply.
You have to move around and even compromise with your beliefs a bit to find livelier and younger crowds. What is most important is being married, having children, and teaching the next generation your high level of morals (while keeping an eye single to the Glory of God, of course). If you have to slightly change your believes, but still remain as a good standing Christian, that compromise may be worth it.
Last church I went to, half were very young, beautiful. The men were handsome and active, too. Plenty for both sexes to choose potential partners. Imagine that: young, righteous, people are attractive.
