So what's up with the new definition of beauty? Do tattoos, black lipstick, and ragged jeans really make for a beautiful woman of God? Does God want our daughters looking anorexic or obese? Is there a happy medium between the wild woman from Borneo and the plasticized makeup queen? What is the measure of true beauty for women? Kevin Swanson interviews Anne Sofia and Elizabeth Botkin on their new webinar, "Reclaiming Beauty." Simplistic formulas are rejected here in favor of the Trinitarian concept of beauty. Don't miss this thoughtful discussion on clothing, makeup, jewelry, and demeanor!

Great Sermon! Mrs Crawford--thats DANGEROUS. If the church is complaning about the way she is dressed, were a long way from 2 Chronicles 7:14. I for one would LOVE to see the 'below the knee' skirts come back in style AS STANDARD as in NO MORE JEANS(i remember when women NEVER wore pants unless horseback riding and pantsuits were RADICAL for women). I believe a person dont have to wear a skirt down to their ankles though

Great Sermon! Many female so called Christian performers are just as guilty of lack of modesty. Rebecca St. James for one. I had heard of her but never seen her. I looked at her facebook page. And was shocked at her lack of modesty. Just because she doesn't show as much as Britney Spears or Lady Gaga doesn't mean she is being modest! I commented on one of her pictures where Rebecca St James is wear skin tight leather pants (nearly all her pictures she is wearing very form snugging material including yoga pants) and mentioned her outfit wasn't as modest as it should be & how much lovlier it would have been with a nice long skirt, simple and elegant. Oh my goodness the reaction from her fans was awful! You would have thought I called her the devil or something! Her fans told me I was rude and uptight and old fasioned & even went so far as to send me private messages to harrass me! Hmmm.. maybe I struck a nerve?

Great Sermon! I believe this 'gothic' look is from the fact, we're 3 generations deep in broken homes today; if people 12-35 are dressing disrespectfully with skulls etc. I also talked some teens out of tattoos because i tell them THEYRE PERMANENT.
I'm noticing that fewer women were wearing pastel colors in spring and summer unless they were over 60, becuase their generation did. I'm seeing too much BLACK,BLUE,& PURPLE (probably to match the tats) Theyre going to be money made in the industry to remove tattoos off of older people who got tats when they were in their teens--when your skin changes, they change--I wouldnt mind henna sometimes depending on what you are wearing because its removable
I actually think that the more women dress feminine, the batter they are treated, even young guys who dont know what to do will open doors for them--I would love it if dresses and skirts just below the knee (kneecaps are weird being shown) would come back in style(50s DIOR)--if the fabric is wrinkleproof it shouldnt be hard, those skirts are quite comfortable
