To our daughters, Elise, Abigail, and Amani:
Respect yourselves as daughters of the Most High God. Modest dress is not a call to be unattractive, and/or dull. In fact, the opposite has been proven. Women who dress to reveal, trigger a portion in a man's brain that views women as nonhuman...as tools. Yes, they seem to exhibit a power over their male audience, but it's the same power that Lowes and Home Depots possess. You, our beauties, are not hardware stores. You are minds and souls and were wonderfully made. So, until a man respects you for your intellect and personality, don't allow him to rule your body. Allow him to pursue you with a promise to wed you. Don't let him pursue you as if you're some sort of weekend renovation project.
Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain,
but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. ~Proverbs 31:30
To our sons, Ian, Israel, Ezra, Ephraim, Ethan, Elias, and Ezekiel:
Your manhood is not measured by how many women you can sleep with. True manhood is measured by how much you honor God, and in honoring God, loving one woman for the duration of your life. You will show women every where how much they are valued, by upholding your promise to your wife. In this, you are telling all that women should be honored, protected, and cherished. In turn, you will be respected. Do not give in to the pressure that society pushes on you. Look at the end of those that follow their ways. Be the example of a godly man.
Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright; for the end of that man is peace. ~Psalms 37:37
