Covering The Web

Shining a spotlight on the head covering discussion happening worldwide.

  • Head Covering in Modern Times. Is This A Necessary Practice? (Children Are A Blessing)
    “Months ago I began subscribing to a site called The Head Covering Movement. (Yes, my husband has teased me for this, ha!) Anyhow, while reading their articles and blog posts I began to piece a few clues together that has made this passage become clear to me.”
  • Sunday Brunch – Should Women Cover Their Heads? (Cecelia’s Christian Fiction Blog)
    Fiction author Cecelia Dowdy brings up the topic and turns it over to you for your thoughts: “Please leave a comment about this thought-provoking subject!”
  • Head-Covering: Is It Still Relevant? (Regeneration, Repentance and Reformation)
    “While the sign upon her head, and it must always be that upon the head if any, may change according to the day, the necessity of it remains. The church has held to this position for nearly two millennia until the sexual revolution and women’s liberation movement; this is an historical fact that cannot be easily dismissed by revisionism.”
  • So…head covering…yes or no? (Blessed Hope Farm)
    “Now, after my long rant in that previous post some of you are still wondering: What did she decide about the head covering and what does it all mean?! I know you are waiting with bated breath so I’ll tell you already.”

Covering Testimony: Sue Marini

1) Introduce yourself to our readers.

My name is Sue and I am the wife of Alex Marini (an elder at Gap View Mennonite Church in PA) and mother of 6 children (ages 17 to 30).  I’m a secretary to my husband’s harp-making business, and have home schooled for 28 years (this spring I graduate!) I was raised in a Catholic family in Massachusetts, and after I became a Christian (at age 18 in 1975), I was a part of a Plymouth Brethren church where the older ladies still wore head coverings to church. I met my husband at this church, and we were married in August of 1980. In 1988 we moved to PA to be a part of an Anabaptist church that held to a more Scriptural teaching on many issues. If you want to read more about my family and see pictures of my children + grandchildren you can go to the “About Us” section of our website at www.marinimadeharps.com.

Shining a spotlight on the head covering discussion happening worldwide.

  • What we believe on head covering in church. (Three Girls and their Hobbies)
    “We recently came across this great movie. Please watch this, and let us know what you think…We are not saying that if you don’t wear head covering in church you aren’t a Christian, but that this is a sign of submission to your father and eventually your husband, and through them, God.”
  • My Experience With Head Coverings (Penned by Katrina)
    “My boyfriend at the time asked me why I wouldn’t wear [a head covering], and the only reason I could think of was because I thought it was weird.  That bothered me. I didn’t want to be unwilling to obey Scripture just because it was asking me to do something weird….I am not wearing a head covering now, and am not sure that is what God is asking me, but I do think that attitude changes everything.”
  • More-Less for 2014 and my childish impatience that changed my life (Blessed Hope Farm)
    “The Lord has recently laid upon my heart a passage of Scripture that I can no longer ignore or excuse away. If you are a Christian and have read the first book of Corinthians, you may recall 1 Corinthians 11: 3-16. Ouch, yep, THAT verse. To be honest, I always skipped over that verse because I, and my church leaders, always focused on verse fifteen.”
  • Thought for Thursday (Sussex Gospel Hall)
    “As the woman wears her head covering, she displays to the angels the beauty of God’s order: the woman in subjection to the man,and the man in subjection to Christ. Angels can learn much from you and me. And they will learn, if we follow God’s pattern of authority.”
