More On Modesty
A friend showed me a copy of 'Modesty Check' (PDF file) by Carolyn Mahaney and Nicole Whitacre (both of Girl Talk) a while back. I thought it was excellent and wanted to share it with you, especially this quote from John MacArthur:
How does a woman discern the sometimes fine line between proper dress and dressing to be the center of attention? The answer starts in the intent of the heart. A woman should examine her motives and goals for the way she dresses. Is her intent to show the grace and beauty of womanhood? Is it to reveal a humble heart devoted to worshipping God? Or is it to call attention to herself and flaunt her beauty? Or worse, to attempt to lure men sexually? A woman who focuses on worshipping God will consider carefully how she is dressed, because her heart will dictate her wardrobe and appearance.

Hi! I found your neat site through Regenerate Our Culture. I like the thoughts here, and the emphasis on Femininity is great. We need more people like you ;o)! Keep up the good work! Great quote by John MacArthur, btw!
I Agree! We do need more people doing this sort of thing!
Have you ever read the book "Secret Keeper" by Dannah Gresh? It's about modesty and it's very convicting, I've read it twice, and my mom just gave some copies to girls in her sunday school class. We think every young woman should read that book
