Attention: young men and ladies, parents.

Please check out this blog post on modesty. I believe this young man has  a solid hold on what God desires from us in the area of purity and modesty. We have many young ladies ask us why modesty is such a big deal. This post states it better than I think I could. It is written by a young man that has set in his heart to be pure of heart, waiting on the Lord for direction in every part of his life, including when/if he will be married, and I believe is a great example for young folks.

We have found more and more the last few years, we have seen that young ladies are largely ignorant of the stumbling block immodesty causes men. I also know  that some intentionally put themselves out for viewing, desiring acceptance from other females and the attention of males. Dressing and acting immodestly only hurts everyone involved. I encourage folks to pray about what standard of dress and action would please the Lord. When in doubt, err on the side of caution and godliness. We must not follow the trend of the world to sexualize everything and normalize immorality. Let the Lord guide your heart and pray that He will guard your heart.
