A Return To Modest Apparel

Introduction

 

Have you noticed that many contemporary Christian song lyrics are more about man than about God?  More about the worshipper than the God whom we should be worshipping?  This trend seems to be ever-growing – just as the trend in the Church is growing for “easier to understand” Bible translations, simplified sermons, and even easy salvation formulas.
