Feminine Modesty again

Continuing through the Feminine Modesty sermons, I am quickly reminded that my daughters should listen to this series. I plan to have them listen to one sermon a week. Each Thursday we will discuss the message after our weekly humanities discussion.

More points from Feminine Modesty . . .

A girl dressed immodestly
  • is saying her dad is a coward or a fool (for letting her out of the house like that)
  • is a fool herself
  • attracts fools
  • will reproduce fools
In addition to foolishly dressed girls, the second message also discussed the idea of maidens. We do not use the term maiden in our culture. Instead, we call them singles. However, maiden is the term used in the Bible and is a term we should esteem. Being a maiden is a virtue to a young lady. If Augustine addressed our church by saying he wanted a few minutes to speak to the maidens, we would probably be clueless.
