A Messy Conversation About Modesty | Sadie Robertson Huff & Korie Robertson

[@hollys1470]

Modesty is a heart issue. As I’ve grown in my faith over the past 23 years since I was saved, I’ve tended to cover up more and more- not because anyone told me to, but because I felt the Holy Spirit convicting me. I would look in the mirror and ask myself “What is my eye first drawn to?” “Is what I’m wearing distracting others... am I being a stumbling block?” The Lord in His grace has so worked in life and I am in a contented spot now. I still struggle as all of us do, but it’s gotten easier. Thanks for focusing on the heart.

Beautiful Conversation Between 2 Women Of The Most High GOD 🙌🏾

[@juliannacimillo3308]

Just wanted to share how much I'm loving you and your mama getting to sit down and unpack the Word together about common questions we may have. It's so refreshing and y'all have brought so much wisdom to these topics!

[@phelpshero2454]

Even as a guy, this was awesome to listen to. Gave me a new way to look at the topic. I remember on my senior trip to Disney, some of the guys in my hotel room were talking about who has the "best rack", and I thought its was so strange they were talking about deer. Then learned what they were talking about and immediately left the room. I don't under why people look at the outside. Character stays the same through good and bad. You can change your look everyday to get what you want but the bait you catch them with is the bait you keep them with. I would prefer catching a trophy with my character not with how much I show my muscles or body.

[@valerie6641]

(Talking about deer🤣) You’re awesome!🫶 but I totally agree with what you said. God has shown me that Who he says I am and What he says I am is the truth, and that truth is my fulfillment! That I’m fearfully and wonderfully made, that I’m More than a Conqueror, that he Knit me together in my mothers womb. After getting that revelation of Gods love for me, there’s no more room for trying to get approval from anyone else! (Also you should continue gaming videos!🤣) God bless!!

Wowwowow! I love how you highlighted what Jesus said about plucking your own eye out, NOT making the woman cover up. This feels like a really balanced conversation. This is so good and definitely not talked about enough. It is also really powerful coming from a young woman who is beautiful/trendy and also chooses to live modestly. Thank you!

[@anonymous-hl9rv]

Women dressing immodestly should never be an excuse for men to sin! Not to live in Lust! But women should be mindful of dressing modestly, because we are the temple of God! We are beautifully and fearfully made, bought by the precious blood of Jesus Christ! If we don't want men looking at us with Lust, we should of course cover up! It's like walking on the streets with gold in your hand! Would you show it to everyone, or would you be mindful about it, keep it to yourself that no one would try to take from you! Dress up in anything pretty and sexy for your husband, but when your out and about be careful,!

[@Joanna-bi4ix]

Hey… fellow sister in Christ here :) I recommend reading the book “The great sex rescue” by Sheila Wray Gregoire if you wanted an even more in-depth perspective on modesty. It changed my life on the way I view so so much, but definitely modesty as well. Very well-rounded, truthful, Christ-centered book. I hope that helps

[@belhansen5403]

I mostly agree with this video but honestly I’m just feeling like we as women in the body of Christ have been horrible at really being honest with our own appearance and admitting when maybe we chased after vanity too much or about trying to look trendy too much. To me it’s less about modesty and more about asking Holy Spirit to tell us if we have allowed our image or appearance in clothing hair makeup shoes accessories whatever if it’s become an idol where we think about our appearance more then his face and his purposes in each day. When what we wear or trying to look young or trendy becomes our first thought when we wake or our only thought thru out the day, that is a per strong sign of an idol in those things and we just need to repent and truly start confessing and admitting when maybe we have sought other things and allowed our mind to be consumed with our earthly image more then His. Lord please help us be better at admitting when we did make an idol of our image and cared more about our youthfulness and trendiness and welcome other godly sincere women to shed light on whether we are being distracted. Even if someone is judging maybe we take those comments to you and truly seek your heart that we may be more like you! as godly women help ustruly be submitted to your will in the area of our clothing and our image of hair makeup accessories youthful appearance etc please lead us to a place of humbleness where where willing to receive your conviction and repent to actually mature in you and be a better witness for you. Take away every distraction from us that keeps us closer to you and knowing you. We truly want to be mature godly women in our heart and mind. Thank you God that you alone are fully capable to change us from the inside out. Have your way in Jesus name. Amen

[@bethwalker7432]

Wow. This was good. I am a youth leader and this is always an interesting minefield for both my boy and girl students. I’ve always had a desire to dress in a way that is modest and isn’t provocative, mostly due to a discomfort that I have found in clothing that I considered questionable. My husband encourages me to dress in a way that I feel pretty, but one of the most amazing things I’ve learned since marrying him is that the way I dress in public is an act of love to him. The fact that I don’t dress provocatively in public has shown him the confidence that I have in our marriage because I don’t need the attention elsewhere. It’s a form of respect I have for myself that has also become a form of respect for my husband. I love how God showed his faithfulness to me in seeking His guidance on my attire to transfer to an act of love for my husband. God is so cool that way! Wonderful job ladies, I was encouraged and can’t wait to share this with my students at church!

[@bricoley]

I feel the same way!

[@annaleigh9150]

How we dress does matter regardless of how it makes us feel or the reason. If you are exposing too much skin don't you think the Lord cares about that? Just because it's an expression of " who you are" does not mean it is pleasing to the Lord or not a temptation to our brothers in Christ. Modesty is about the heart AND about how we dress.

So who decides how much skin is “too much”? You? God? Your definition of “modest” will always be someone else’s definition of “whore”.

[@roberttramontana9875]

Scripture is clear you are go sacrifice your will to cover up and help others overcome desires and sin. Jewelry is idolatry and sin and we will be judged for it. Jesus said 1st remove your sin THEN teach others to do so also. James 1 says be careful not to be a hearer of the word and not a doer deceiving yourself. Read acts 17:24-31.

[@szs2785]

This is a distraction from what is happening NOW. The oppression of women and children MUST END. When little girls are taught to dress modestly, we are teaching them that the men in their life, at their church, and at their homes have pedophilic tendencies and that is just something to accept. IT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. Sisters, the collective power of our natural creativity, our compassion, and our love for our babies is what will carry the world into an age of peace and love. Mothers, women, children around the world must be on the SAME TEAM. The patriarchy has built a world of greed, fear, war and violence, and abuse of women. Break free of the shackles of middle eastern teachings and help save the world. No mother will send her babies to die and lose limbs in wars. We must put aside our differences and be as one. Spread love, spread education. Teach your children that boys and girls are equal. You, born a woman, have the same capacity for intelligence, goodness, awareness as someone whose chromosomes happened to switch to “xy” (male). Time goes on, and it will keep going on for thousands and millions of years. The concept of gender will become obsolete in time. We have the tools and technology for a peaceful world NOW, the last step is a transition from a patriarchal world mindset to a matriarchal one.

lust goes hand in hand with modesty. also we got to be careful not to base modesty on our feelings alone!

[@paulofell9939]

Absolutely.... Christian women look just like the world...

[@roberttramontana9875]

Biblically modesty is defined in scripture as well as how we are to dress and wear your hair to show obedience to God’s word and prove you love to others and protect from sin and desire. Acts 17 says no gold it’s graven/dead art and an idol. We are supposed to be living examples of Christ making living sacrifices for the benefit of others that shows Christs example. There is no one harder to convince to give up everything literally everything than the rich. They just don’t get it. They can’t imagine living without their comforts and the things that comfort them. They literally sit there reading scripture that says don’t do this while doing it and make worldly excuses to be able to continue instead of just reading and following scripture having faith Jesus is a good shepherd and he commands things for our benefit and the benefit of others not our destruction. Faith is living by hope and following Jesus’s voice not saying oh let them pluck their eyes out so they can’t see sin.

It’s not about me, it’s about Him!

[@megaamybug]

This is a great conversation. My church has a guide for decision making on topics like this. I love this quote from the book, “As you make decisions about your clothing, hairstyle, and appearance, ask yourself, “Am I honoring my body as a sacred gift from God?” Heavenly Father wants us to see each other for who we really are: not just physical bodies but His beloved children with a divine destiny. Avoid styles that emphasize or draw inappropriate attention to your physical body instead of who you are as a child of God with an eternal future. Let moral cleanliness and love for God guide your choices.” This was put together taking guidance from scripture. I think you did a great job.

[@AB-ol5uz]

I recommend checking the history of braids...I'm not sure that a braid is inherantly immodest (other then possibly exposing the neck?) but they may have adorned their braids with jewelry, flowers and other elements to ornament their hair that may have led to the assertion that it's their practice of adorning their hair wasn't modest....just food for thought.

[@lisagrace6471]

The tricky thing is that our actions, or how we choose to cover or not cover ourselves, etc, is an expression of the heart. The inner heart and outward appearance have a relationship but aren't always direct or as plain as we all think. I also think modesty is not only related to appearance and clothes...it is interesting to think about. Sadie, I am sorry you felt that enormous pressure and judgement as a youth. For me, I felt like my mom was pretty strict about clothes and I resented it sometimes...but when I got older, I actually was glad. It may not have come across well at all, but I began to understand certain things more when I was older and for me it was more about my self-worth and honoring God, and not so much whether I was right or wrong or righteous or not, if that makes sense. I appreciated that my mom said something, even if it didn't come off in a way I thought was good and did not appreciate at the time. I do think the Lord has a line when it comes to the cost and expression of clothing, but obviously that might matter based on our own circumstances. Thank you for this needful discussion.

Did Jesus buy nice things for himself? He is our perfect example. What Jesus said was give away everything and live humbly. If you are buying designer anything you are living lavishly not humbly out of necessity. Scripture says no gold it is an idol and idolatry is a sin. Read acts 17. we are to be examples of Christ needing nothing especially not riches and gold.

Making decisions which honor God in everything we do & say not just how we dress. Our convictions are our own.. not a standard meant for us to judge others on. Many Christians are hyper focused on the outward or even making certain sins bigger than others. But really what we need to be doing is cleaning out our own “closets”.. metaphorically speaking (or maybe literal too).

Love this conversation. It would have been interesting to dive deeper into the scripture to look up the word modesty in the Greek for the biblical meaning. I've found as I study that English words do not always mean the same as the English words we see in the Bible (due to translations etc). Still a fabulous conversation.

Biblical modesty as far as appearance goes is cover up your skin to avoid desires and attracting evil spirits. We are living examples of Christ and make living sacrifices by doing good so others can avoid sin and overcome it. A woman’s hair is her covering, to cover your flesh. You braid you are no longer covered. Christian’s are not supposed to wear jewelry or gold. Bc it’s displaying riches and lavishness and it is a idol/idolatry and sin. Read acts 17:24-31

11:30 the rules based modesty discussion is really only applicable for a good hearted woman who is honestly just naive about how much of common female dress gets lustful attention from men.

Who cares? Theyre just bodies. Everybody is born with one! The “self” lies within. “Modesty” is a cultural concept which changes over time and varies depending on setting. In some cultures, having bare breasts out doesn’t get a second glance, but to show the legs in church would be a “sin”. Do you cover your hair in church like the bible says you should? People in the middle east have always worn long flowing garments on the body and head, both men and women, to prevent exposure to the sun. The bible is a collection of middle eastern writings from a while ago. You can find no shortage of sexist, racist, and awful things in it. A few nuggets of wisdom, sure, but nothing too profound. You, born a female, are not a “subspecies” of human. You have the exact same potential for intelligence, understanding, and self awareness as men. You are not worth less. You have no obligation to worry over whether your tank top straps are 1 inch or 2 inches thick. Life is over in the blink of an eye. Show love and patience for all, enjoy yourself, follow your highest passion. What is modest to you, is disgusting and immoral to someone else.

Honestly in a nutshell if we want to please the heart of God in our dress or appearance we need to be more willing to receive correction if we’re offending someone and not just be quick to brush it off as judgment. I’ve had a friend come and tell me all my cleavage was showing when I bent down and I may want to put a tank top on underneath. I wasn’t hurt or offended I was so thankful bc I knew her and she knew me and my heart for modesty and I quickly put an undershirt on. I was so thankful to be enlightened and even if I didn’t agree I could go to the father and ask his heart in the matter and he could still show me the truth and the best thing to do and I can still love her for the fact of caring for me and if I still felt judgment I’d pray for her and talk to her if I felt led . I just think we need to take every correction to the father and ask him to speak into the situation and make sure we’re not just living by our feelings .

As we grow in understanding we are also to grow in obedience to God and become living examples of Christ needing nothing and giving everything. Biblical modesty does not change depending on circumstances and as far as a womans appearance goes you are supposed to cover your naked skin to deter desires and protect from corrupt men and corrupt angels. If you show skin you attract evil and evil desires. We are supposed to be examples of Christ making sacrifices for the benefit of others bringing peace. If you braid your hair it doesn’t cover as God intended but I believe scripture is saying don’t braid/weave gold into your hair as the Egyptians to show riches and social status. Should we wear gold? NO Read acts 17:24-31 Jewelry is graven/dead art: an idol/idolatry and acts 17:31 says why not bc we will be judged on this. Read James 1 also! It says be sure to be a doer of the word and not just a hearer deceiving yourself. God gives commandments for our benefit and to bring love and peace.

Also in the Bible it says men don’t wear what women wear, and women don’t wear what men wear; and nowadays in the church culture they think that women have to only wear skirts and cover literally everything.but back then when it was said, men and women wore the same thing, even Jesus. It never says women don’t wear pants, it says to show the fruit of the spirit. And the Bible says that God doesn’t look on the outside, he looks on the inside ,while humanity looks on the outside. And you aren’t supposed to judge based on looks, you are supposed to judge based on their attitude and spirit. Modestly means to be simple and not attract attention to yourself. And jewelry is fine too like Jesus literally told the parable of the father and two sons and in it he says the father gave the son a ring, like Jesus wouldn’t say that if it was a sin. And with wine, Jesus literally drank wine and his first miracle was turning water into wine. And you also got to says to yourself, like who are we to judge or who are they to judge, nobody is perfect everyone has flaws everday that we all need to fix before we try fixing others.

People who have challenging relationships with their parents for valid reasons like physical or mental abuse either as an adult or as a child.

Or the parent doesn't want to acknowledge wrongdoings that hurt their child and still affect them as adults.

[@Hiswordandme]

The way you choose to dress reflects your heart. And part of being a Christian is considering the thoughts of others. As women, we must consider the thoughts of men and also the thoughts of other women. Modesty goes back to love for the brethren, to not be a stumblingblock to sin. Walking in humility is important to honour biblical modesty and it's not easy... I suggest if you want to go deeper into this topic to watch a video recently uploaded by "followers of the way" where 4 women share their testimony around modesty... It is a journey but God's Word is final and the culture around us should not influence our motives. Culture changes but His Word does not. His Word was for then, is for now and the future... We're not to change with the times no matter how strange we appear to the world. Don't dress to compete, nor show off wealth. Don't dress to draw attention or to seek out a husband. Don't dress to be noticed or praised. Don't dress to cause others to sin. Dress to honour God and glory Him... In doing so, you will not be praised or acknowledged by the world but your father in heaven will see your good works and He will be glorified. Modesty begins inward but it is also outward as intructed by Paul & Peter through the Holy Spirit. Don't try to explain away what is written or use culture to diminish God's holy Word.

[@godisfreedomwithjordaneffr8798]

Sadie, my sister, I hope this finds you well, and I pray that the Lord continues to work in your life and use you to spread his gospel in truth. I come to you as a sinner who needed saving and as someone who has come out of the lifestyle of homosexuality and wanting to believe that the Bible was a lenient guide to life, and not the full guide to truth, that being said I had often found myself in the same position as you, when it came to understanding what the Lord says about taking his words both literally and perfectly. However, my sister, I will say this. When the Bible talks about modesty, the Bible is clear that modesty is not just about the outer appearance, but it is about the inner appearance like you talked about, In addition though the Bible emphasizes for sure that modesty on the exterior matters. Modesty is not about what makes you comfortable. Modesty is about presenting your body to the world, and before God as a sacred temple that deserves covering, and should only be seen by the eyes of God and your partner in him i.e. marriage. So it concerns me when I hear you say that you wear things because it’s coming from a place in your heart that is not meant to be flashy or loud or abrasive. I understand you but I challenge you my sister to think of it this way. The word of God says that the human heart is deceptive our hearts deceive us in that our hearts lie. My heart for years, led me to believe that I wanted to sleep with men, and even in someways, distorted my view of love, because I felt like in my heart that my idea of love was the perfect idea because it made me feel good and I didn’t feel like in my heart I was being vicious or in opposition to Christ. Just like many things with the human heart I was deceived, so it is my prayer and hope, my sister, that as you view modesty and tattoos and all matter of things that the Bible so clearly makes an argument against that you look at it from the lens of not where your heart is coming from but that you look at it for what the truth is, and what the word quite literally says because God is perfect and we are not and because of the fall we are so easily deceived by our own feelings. I love you and I hope the family is doing well.

[@roberttramontana9875]

It’s our actions that prove out our heart’s intentions and our obedience to God’s will over time. It is our actions we will be judged on. As we grow in Christ we are also supposed to grow in understanding and obedience and teach others to do so also.

Acts 17:24-31 specifically says no gold jewelry they are dead/ graven art and idols/idolatry and sin and we will be judged for it.

When we seek God, He will change us on the outside to reflect Him. It won't happen as soon as you accept Him it's a process but it's a process that has to come from learning about Him ourselves not other people's opinions of Him. That's where Christians have to stop being so judgemental we hurt His process when we are being the judge and trying to force people into what we think they should be rather than just showing them love, speaking truth to them, letting them find God, and letting God do the changing.

Yes! Absolutely. Yes! My modesty journey didn’t happen overnight by any means but God has been so patient with me 🙂 I no longer have a desire to show everything off but to cover my body instead. I don’t NEED or want that type of attention for men. I want to dress in a way that honors and glorifies God 🕊️🙏🏼❤️ I want to represent Christ in the best way possible. It’s not about me, it’s about Him!

Can you do an episode on “Keeping the sabbath sacred”

[@roberttramontana9875]

Jesus is the God of the sabbath and he go do my work every day.

I am a Christian. How we dress does matter. God says we are light in the world. How can the world differentiate us from them? If we follow christ we are to be different from the world. Our bodies is God temple and it should be respected and not meant to show alot of skin. Plus it makes the men fall into temptation just because they see skin. Bathing suits are definitely a no! But that's just me.

I agree with you. I once when on a Multi-Church outing with a bunch of other teens to witness, and I literally couldn't tell which side was which because all the Christian girls were wearing short shorts, crop tops, etc. How we dress really does make an impact on people, whether we know it or not.

Ehh.. It's broader than just your "contentment" & your "intentions" Obviously if someone happens to lust after you & you've done everything in your power to dress modesty, it isn't your fault. But nowadays Christian women ought to examine themselves not based on how they perceive themselves, but how others are perceiving them. What does this outfit say about me? What might this cause people to think, say, or do? Does this outfit reflect ME, or Christ? I understand we can only control our own desires & intentions, & you will drive yourself crazy always trying to ensure that every little thing you portray is "modest"! But we need to look at the hypersexualized world around us, & dress with the assumption that all eyes are sexually supercharged eyes. Because they most likely are. Just my opinion. Not judging or condemning anybody else who sees differently. Ultimately modesty is about minimizing ourselves so that there is more room for others to see the light of Christ in us, instead of the clothes we wear or the house we own. Have a modest home, schedule, closet, & personality- so God can occupy every inch.

Great points about brands and attention grabbers - it isn’t only covering your full body - it is gaining attention to yourself and thus away from God
