We are pleased to announce a new two-hour DVD video presentation entitled “Dressing for the Lord.” It is based on the book by that title that was published earlier this year. The messages were recorded in July at Knobs Hill Baptist Church in Tower Hill, Illinois, and Brian Snider, who has created all of our DVD presentations, has done a truly masterly job with this new one. 

A multiplicity of photographs of individuals, books, and video clips are professionally mixed into this high-quality presentation to illustrate the message. (There are no pictures that are in any way immodest in the video presentation, and it is suitable for showing in churches to mixed audiences of all ages.)

One reader of the book said: “I finished reading ‘Dressing for the Lord’ this morning, and Sir, you have hit the nail right on the head! This is the best and most comprehensive work I've ever seen on the dress issue; praise God! The book is super and really needs to be read by Christian men and women the world over.”

There was a time, just a few years ago, when a message like the one contained in this book was heard from fundamentalist and independent Baptist pulpits across the world, but that is no longer the case. All too often, any kind of preaching about clothing has become an oddity, an embarrassment, or a type of “legalism.” The resistance of the rock & roll culture to such preaching is so pervasive that many pastors have decided to ignore the matter of dress, thus the battle is lost simply because the ground is abandoned. Yet if ever there ever were a time when preachers need to warn their people about clothing issues, it is today. Modern society is drenched with indecency. A Vogue fashion show would make ancient Corinth blush.

To lay a solid Bible foundation for modesty, we give a careful exegesis of about several key Bible passages, and from these Scriptures we develop Bible principles that can be applied to any nation or culture.

The major section titles are as follows:

• “The Importance of Reproof”
• “The Origin of Clothing
• “Clothing Is a Language”
• “A Survey of Christian Men on the Subject of Women’s Dress”
• “A Bible Study on Modesty”
• We also deal with common questions such as the following:
• “Isn’t this just a problem for the men?”
• “Since God looks on the heart, why be so concerned about appearance?”
• “Men are going to sin anyway, so what is the big deal?”
• “As an older woman I don’t think the modesty issue is very significant for me”
•  “God is the business of changing hearts, which is more important than dress”
• “Should women only wear drab sack dresses?”
• “Wearing dresses is old-fashioned and we should not be weird”
• “Those who preach on dress are legalistic”

(The 203-page book Dressing for the Lord is also available from Way of Life Literature.)
