My Beyond Life

What happens when the hard thing doesn't go away? In Part 1 of our study through Job, Amy explores how devastation can turn into discouragement when suffering lingers—and how exhaustion, unanswered questions, and the voices around us can make the weight even heavier. Job's story reminds us that faith doesn't mean pretending we aren't hurting: discouragement is an emotion to walk through, not a destination to live in.Follow this link to get the devotionals for the series on discouragment:https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/p46369connegjh2t9nd1n/AJSkjIYGbmCFh7kcWfGHGYA?rlkey=tnjwpx835z1iyrlh9k3aj6i1n&st=8s7371ch&dl=0

What does biblical modesty actually mean? Is modesty simply about what you wear, or is there something deeper happening in the heart?In this special LIVE Girl Talk, Sarah and Amy Edwards sit down with their Life Groups for an honest conversation about biblical modesty, clothing, body image, insecurity, social media, identity, and honoring Christ with the way we present ourselves.For some women, the word modesty brings memories of strict rules, dress policies, and questions about what is or isn't appropriate to wear. For others, modesty may seem outdated or unnecessary. But biblical modesty isn't about simply finding a list of rules or figuring out how close we can get to the line. It begins with the heart.In this conversation, Sarah and Amy walk through 1 Timothy 2:9–10 and discuss what Scripture teaches about godliness, the value God has placed on our bodies, and the difference between looking beautiful and seeking attention.You'll also hear practical conversations about:• How our motives affect the way we dress• What people notice first• Social media and the desire for attention• Why our bodies are valuable to God• How Christian maturity affects our clothing choices• Listening to the Holy Spirit instead of simply looking for the line• How parents can teach their daughters about modestyWhether you're a teenage girl, young adult, mom, grandmother, or simply a woman trying to navigate the messages our culture sends about beauty and appearance, we hope this conversation points you back to something deeper.Your worth isn't found in how you look, what you wear, or how much attention you receive. Your identity is found in Christ.

In Part 2 of our conversation on modesty, we’re getting into the why behind what you wear. Because sometimes the bigger question isn’t just, “Is this modest?” but, “Why do I want to wear this in the first place?”We’re talking about the motivations behind our clothing choices, the messages we may be sending through what we wear, the influences that shape our style, and how our intentions matter just as much as the outfit itself.This is a conversation about looking beyond the clothes and being honest about what’s influencing the way we dress.
