Sarah, you look very lovely in that top. I am a christian homeschooling mom to 8 . My oldest is grown still 7 at home. We emphasized modesty throughout the childrens upbringing, but I wish I set a better example of modesty for the children, Especially girls . You are a Godly witness to this community. Thank you.
Thank you for the compliment on the shirt. I found it at a thrift store my daughter frequents in Tennessee. We can only go forward from today. There are many things I wish we had started earlier for our family, but I can only start now. God will keep revealing things to us and we can start sharing those truths now. I also remember that my children are going to advance the kingdom of God farther than I can, pushing forward from where I am now. I can look back and regret the past of things I wish I had done. Or I can teach them what I know now and cheer for them as I see them be more faithful from examples (both good and bad) that they have seen.
You're so welcome! Others have mentioned they found his view confusing , let us know if you watch it. We would be interested to talk more about this doctrine and application.
Thank you for sharing your reasons. I am not totally done with the video, I am still watching. If your daughters didn't want to head cover, how would you handle that? ❤ Edit....I meant older daughters. I heard you wouldn't force a small child.
I would say that girl in the house needs to submit to her father’s authority. If the father has chosen that all girls must wear a headcover, then I would say that she needs to follow her father’s instruction. If she wants to bring biblical text to be considered, we would welcome that, but dad is still the final authority. I would relate it to anything else we do in the house. If this is the family standard we will do it. A child would not get out of doing laundry or school just because they didn’t want to. Also seeing mom do it with a joyful attitude. Not “I have to wear this, but I get to wear this”
Thank you so much. I cover and have covered for almost 20 years. We have never required our 6 daughters to cover. Your explanation of why you have your daughters cover has given me some good food for thought. It makes sense to have them cover as part of their training for adulthood just as we have them dressing modestly and so on. I will be bringing this before my husband and see what he thinks. I desire that my daughters would obey Our Lord in this area as well. I appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts on this.
I grew up in the brethern assemblies and had a hunch yall were involved because of the black hymns of worship hymn yall used in your videos and the headcovering
We attend a church planted by the North American Mission Board and is affiliated with (though not always in agreement with) the Southern Baptist Convention. There’s a missionary family who practice covering but they are only there a few times a year.
I was raised in non denominational/ Assembly of God Pentecostal churches. I was born in CT but now live in western NC. My husband when we got married was involved in independent Baptist. Although I don’t feel a conviction to cover I think it’s beautiful that you choose to I do feel convicted however to be modest and to follow my husbands lead.
There are many “flavors” of Amish and Mennonites. The vast majority of Mennonites do not believe in any kind of works salvation. Most Mennonites would call the head covering a prayer covering because the Bible says that men should have their heads uncovered when they pray and women should have their heads covered when they pray. Most Mennonites would absolutely agree with your description of the purpose and symbol of headship. The only thing the Mennonite church would possibly disagree with is having girls or women cover their heads if they have not chosen to follow Christ and/or been baptized.
Thanks for commenting. Wondering about the prophesying aspect of the text. Do you know if Mennonites generally believe that prophesying still happens and is so, how that is practiced?
@@HerdingLittleCows it depends on your definition of prophesy. If you mean speaking for God, no they would not agree with that. However, if your definition is New Testament prophesy then the Mennonites would believe in that, which would be reading the world aloud or even teaching children in Sunday school (which would be considered part of New Testament prophecy) then for the most part yes. The Mennonite church that I attend does not make the head cover a requirement. The church believes that it needs to be a personal conviction and that that conviction will come eventually through the sanctification process. But as I said there are many different flavors of Mennonites and so some churches may require a head covering. I hope that answers your question.
Scripture encourages women to cover their heads when they pray. Clearly if you are covering when you pray then their heads were not covered before praying. So if I walk up to a woman and her head is covered than I would assume she is in prayer and not bother her. A woman having ling hair is a sign of her husbands headship over her. I read those scriptures over and over and I see how.people can get mixed up with it but I am sure that there is nothing tellig us to keep our hair covered. Praying without ceasing doesn't mean constantly pray, which we know noone is doing. So let us be honest, we cannot lie to The Father. I am a Torah keeper. Meaning I follow with yhe teaching of Messiah Yeshua. I am learning and keeping the Fathers ways as scripture tells us this is how we Love Him. Not eating unclean, not keeping pagan festivals like christmas and easter and Halloween!! We have inherited many lies from our fathers as the word reminds us! There are no scriptures old or new testament that tells us to break the Torah. Nothing that says to eat pig Etc. People use peters vision on the roof top that we should know was not literal and the vision was about the gentiles this is told. It should be more obvious when Peter says I have never eaten anything unclean! The dream distressed and disturbed him so much!! This was after Yeshuas death and resurrection which is very telling. Everything Messiah taught was to keep the Torah with the right heart and reason. Because you Live your Father in Heaven and you want to keep His ways that are perfect. The heart issue is big and the Love for truth.
I don’t know others that are Torah followers in this same way. If you want to share my video with some of your friends you and they are welcome to comment. I choose to wear my head covering most of the time but I believe it is specifically talking about when I am praying or prophesying.
1 Corinthians 11:2-16 discusses headship and covering. It says paying or prophesying, which that term can be understood different ways. We understand it to be when speaking to God in reverent prayer, and when we speak the Word of God to include teaching about the Bible. Again, we’re sharing our views and practices, this is something that each one must study God’s Word and be convinced in their own mind how to understand the text and where appropriate live in humble submission to the Lord. Even if we don’t fully comprehend why, it’s such a simple gesture. I’m enjoying the comments here, thanks for joining the discussion.
Deuteronomy 6 is inspired Scripture, we believe in one God, Who eternally exists in three divine Persons; the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. ”“Hear, O Israel! Yahweh is our God, Yahweh is one! You shall love Yahweh your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might.“ Deuteronomy 6:4-5 LSB bible.com/bible/3345/deu.6.4-5.LSB Regarding Jesus the Son; ”In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being.“ John 1:1-3 LSB bible.com/bible/3345/jhn.1.1-3.LSB
So why do the men/boys remove their head covering/hats and the women put them on for prayer? That doesn’t make sense to me if it’s to show glory to God and submission to God. Shouldn’t the men keep their hats on since it a type of head covering and they should also want to show glory to God ? I get that man is above women in the submission order but men are under God. So technically they should also cover their heads bc you said you do all of this for God and to give glory
@@marianeven7510 Here’s the Scripture that’ll explain it better than I could. “But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, the head of a wife is her husband, and the head of Christ is God. Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head, but every wife who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, since it is the same as if her head were shaven. For if a wife will not cover her head, then she should cut her hair short. But since it is disgraceful for a wife to cut off her hair or shave her head, let her cover her head. For a man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God, but woman is the glory of man. For man was not made from woman, but woman from man. Neither was man created for woman, but woman for man. That is why a wife ought to have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels.” 1 Corinthians 11:3-10 ESV bible.com/bible/59/1co.11.3-10.ESV

Good explanation. Loved the succinct gospel explanation also. Val C
Thank you. I didn’t realize the passage actually said that man needs to remove his head covering and explained why
Happy to help. We’re studying 1 Corinthians as a family right now, it’s a very instructive epistle.
I have yet to watch Mike Winger's 3 hour long video on headcoverings😆 so this was helpful, thanks! 😊💗

@@ZebulunMoody We were among the assemblies until 2012. Mark was a commended worker in the area of evangelism.
@HerdingLittleCows interesting!! My dad is a commended itinerate preacher among the assemblies in nc and pa
Hi, thanks for the video. I was wondering what denomination you attend now. Does anyone else cover? Thank you 😊

Yea but do your daughters have to cover?
I think we answered that in the video.
Do you believe in only One G-d? Or how is your belief
Deuteronomy 6 is inspired Scripture, we believe in one God, Who eternally exists in three divine Persons; the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
