Rebranded Christianity

Modesty has been a buzzword in the Christian community for centuries. The emphasis on women dressing modestly is truly a perpetual discussion in churches that never ends in a universal conclusion. In our fallen world, sexualized images of immodestly dressed women have always canvassed the landscape from ancient art to modern-day magazines and billboards. The desire within women to be seen as beautiful and within men to see beautiful female bodies puts us in this modesty dilemma. In this teaching, I want to show you how the concept of dressing modestly begins with a philosophy of the heart that transfers over into outward appearance, and I want to point out how the approach of making it a physical dynamic really creates a lot of guilt, self-consciousness, repression, and condemnation in women.
