More Than Rules | Exploring The Heart Of Beauty And Modesty (Giveaway!)

I was absolutely tickled when one of my favorite bloggers asked me to write the endorsement for her new book, More Than Rules. I've been encouraged by Bambi's blog, In The Nursery of The Nation, for years and it was an honor to give her masterpiece a hearty applause.

More Than Rules is, hands down, the best work I have ever read on modesty. It delivers a timely and convicting message with humility and humor. Though generally a divisive topic among Christian women, Bambi breaks through barriers of legalism and antinomianism and presents a biblical doctrine with grace and kindness that will ultimately lead others to contentment with who they are in Christ.

It's an affirming and encouraging read for those who sometimes feel like living in the modesty trench is a losing battle, and for anyone just curious about what it means to be modest, consider More Than Rules your ticket to a whole new wardrobe!

16 engaging chapters include :

  • Introduction
  • In Which I Go to the Salon for Some Detailing
  • Why We Are Preoccupied with Physical Beauty
  • Motivations of the Heart {and Is it Wrong to Enhance the Appearance}
  • Imperishable Beauty
  • When You Are Not Your Own
  • More Than Bikinis and Burqas
  • Wanton Eyes, Outstretched Necks and the Demeanor of the Christian Woman
  • Captives to Lust
  • Modest Dress {What it is and Eight Reasons Why We Don't Want to Talk About It}
  • Read Any Good Looks Lately?
  • Introducing Six Immodestly Dressed Women
  • What a Christian Woman Should Wear
  • Giving Grace and Six Reasons Why Outward Adornment Should be in Moderation
  • On Making Rules {Sniff, Sniff. Do I Smell a Legalist?}
  • The Immodesty of Modesty {and Other Warnings}

If you have young or teenage daughters, or are influential in the life of any woman at church or abroad, or would simply like to develop a better understanding of biblical modesty yourself in a non-confrontational way, More Than Rules is a must read.
