If you associate dress standards with legalism, this book will positively rock your world! For those seeking a balance between nit-picky rules and permissiveness, it's an indispensable resource. What about legalism and freedom in Christ? What if I'm not convicted? Isn't God just interested in our hearts? These questions and many more are answered with biblical reason and logic.
Using the wall of Jerusalem as an analogy, the reality of the church's cultural accommodation is clearly illustrated: the ruins of modesty, dignity, and gender distinction. The case for biblically based standards is established through practical understanding of relevant scriptural principles and their legitimate application to the polarizing issue of personal standards. This is a makeover for the church from the inside out!
"… fair and honest. What a revival would take place in our churches if they returned to these biblical standards."
Dr. Robert L. Sumner
Editor, The Biblical Evangelist
David Kidd is a pastor and father of six children. Growing up in a pastor's home, he was raised in church, attended Christian schools, and graduated from a Christian college. With years of experience as a Christian school teacher, coach, assistant pastor, youth leader, deacon, and pastor, his observations and exposure to the effects of cultural adaptation upon the Christian family and church have uniquely prepared him to address this issue.
"The greatest struggle when discussing such a sensitive subject, and one about which many wonderful Christian people have strong and opposing opinions, is to present your position clearly without offending those who have a more lenient perspective. It is my prayer that this book will accomplish in print what is so difficult to achieve in person."
—David Kidd, Author
