Modesty might seem like a "gray area," but it should matter to us because it matters to God! In the Bible, immodesty is forbidden for reasons that go beyond mere outward appearance. Martha and Kent write to teen girls in alternating sections, helping them to identify immodesty's causes and consequences, detect legalism, and seek modesty in their actions and dress. Includes discussion questions.

"If you want a God-centered, gospel-saturated, and practical guide to the uncomfortable topic of modesty, look no further! Martha Peace and Kent Keller have given you a gift that will clear up what the Bible really says about the heart of modesty." --Brian H. Cosby, Author, Giving Up Gimmicks: Reclaiming Youth Ministry from an Entertainment Culture
"Martha and Kent have had long-time ministries devoted to knowing the Word of God deeply and applying the Word of God practically to the everyday issues of life. Modesty is a sensitive subject that needs to be taught year by year as styles change and bodies change. Martha and Kent use their diverse experiences and perspectives to carefully apply the Bible's teaching on the heart of modesty. We highly recommend it to you." --John and Lynn Crotts
"Martha Peace and Kent Keller have provided an invaluable resource for teenaged girls on the oft-overlooked topic of modesty. This well organized book asks all the right questions and systematically answers them by the use of biblical truth. If young women are not taught the truth about the gospel reasons for modesty, they often form opinions and habits that are difficult to change. The study of this short book will provide a framework for thinking through this issue that does not involve legalistic checklists but does involve taking seriously what a huge responsibility young women have as they make clothing choices. Martha Peace has included many practical examples from her point of view. The addition of Kent's perspective as a father is so helpful. It is refreshing to see this topic elevated to the importance that it deserves! May the Lord use it to convince, convict, and encourage." --Mary K. Mohler, Wife of R. Albert Mohler, Jr. Director of Seminary Wives Institute
