Dress influences behavior. If women were to become modest in dress and in behavior, then we would be closer to achieving a post-pagan society.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329600504016968888.post-43107962851221719912011-11-30T13:25:48.129-06:002011-11-30T13:25:48.129-06:00And while the properly dressed (male or female) ch...And while the properly dressed (male or female) churchgoer is at it, leave the stainless steel insulated mugs, the giant Starbucks cups, the McDonalds Breakfast remnants, the soda cans, the Dunkin donuts, and the Thrivant cups of coffee out in your SUV or at least in the narthex. You can survive one hour without liquid or pastry sustenance.<br /><br />And turn the ringer off on your cell phone. Not only do you have too many friends who apparently don't know you go to church on Sunday morning, but you made a lousy choice in ring tones.Carl Vehsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00348831096001668813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329600504016968888.post-75592116076262174412011-11-30T09:32:16.708-06:002011-11-30T09:32:16.708-06:00Please disregard the last 4 words

...ATTENTION MEN<br />There seems to be a lack of respect<br />for God's House when you pick out<br />your Sunday morning wardrobe. Casual<br />Fridays at the office spill over to<br />Sloppy Sundays at church. In an<br />LCMS parish last Sunday I saw a<br />60 year old usher wearing blue denim<br />jeans and a plaid flannel shirt. Many men have shed sport coat, tie, and dress for attire more<br />suitable for attending a rodeo.<br /><br />I realize our gracious God looks at our heart when we worship and<br />not our apparel. Yet out of true reverence for our Lord we will want to look respectful and wear<br />our best. <br />for attending a rodeo.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329600504016968888.post-33731027456616535712011-11-30T07:06:16.175-06:002011-11-30T07:06:16.175-06:00I love the fact that Adriane Dorr has pointed to t...I love the fact that Adriane Dorr has pointed to the men around us in the Church. They are our brothers and neighbors. How can we sit back and say, "It's their problem....dirty minded creatures!"<br /><br />Help your neighbor! Imagine if you were actively convincing your best friend to seduce another friend's husband? Worse yet, to seduce your own husband? Worst of all, if you were seducing your own pastor?Janis Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02947508427040251166noreply@blogger.com
