Modesty is Controversial?!?

I have a teenage daughter and honestly this world is a crazy place for her to grow up in, so when I saw the parody video from Christian artist, Matthew West, I literally laughed out loud. Then, I tagged it to show my daughter later, but by the time I came back, the video was deleted, because people were outraged that modesty was promoted?

Seriously people, what?

How can we keep our way pure? By living according to God’s word. – Psalm 119:9 (translation adapted for connotation of context)

The culture has sexualized everything and the Bible speaks directly against that.

This is why I wanted to bring this issue forward today.

Part of Living as a believer

Part of leading as a father or mother

Part of being a brother or sister or son or daughter

is to lead people TO Christ.

We need to be modest, whether male or female.

We need to be pure, whether male or female.

You should be leading the culture instead of letting the culture lead you. That is what we are called to do as believers. Over and over and over I am going to say to you that we need to not only KNOW the truth but to live it. But you need to know this will put you squarely against culture. They will try and silence you. They will fight you. They will hate you.

And Christ will love you because you stood for him.

Keep the Faith!
