Main; Springville fitting, of our culture by Rex M. Rogers Mothers tell me that it's increasingly difficult to shop for clothing for their girls if they care anything about the biblical concept of modesty. Even fashions for girls in the first grade are created with "sex appeal" in mind, let alone clothing for young adults. Clothing lines build entire marketing campaigns upon in-your-face, youthful lustiness lusti-ness and virtually outright eroticism, including cross gender and suggestive multiple multi-ple partner scenarios.

Modesty is a matter of both dress (meaning fads and fashions) and deportment (meaning attitudes, demeanor and communication). Modesty is not just "a women's issue. " Men can be just as immodest in dress and frequently more so in deportment. deport-ment. Modesty is even deeper deep-er than our dress and deportment, deport-ment, for it goes to our understanding of God's holiness and our own self-image. self-image. Who we believe God is determines how we look upon ourselves and how we present ourselves to the world. It doesn't matter what Maddona or Brittany Spears or the next oxymoron "the sensually sophisticated" might be wearing. People look on the outward appearance, appear-ance, but God looks on the heart.
