In regards to the modesty paragraph, I agree whole heartedly with you that there is freedom in this area and there is no clear one way(ex. long dresses) and one wrong way (ex. jeans and other "contemporary" clothing...excluding obviously immodest clothing items of course). I have read some blogs that suggest wearing items such as jeans is plain wrong and this kind of statement makes me very uncomfortable because it is a man made assumption and as your paragraph includes, no amount of long dresses and other similar attire can cover up a haughty, arrogant heart!:) Being a woman who is feeling more and more challenged in the area of modesty-but for myself…not to push my views on others…and as a wife, both these paragraphs drive home thoughts I can really identify with!

I think that all too often we miss the whole point that husbands and wives are supposed to be working together and instead we think about them doing different things in different spheres. This is a recipe for disaster. Why do we find that couples, after their children are grown, are still divorcing? Because they didn't take time to build a relationship that works together toward a common purpose. These are some great quotes.
