“My girls and I feel very convicted to cover our heads during prayer and worship. The Bible passage in 1 Corinthians 11: 3-15 is one that we hold dear to our hearts.” - Why Women Refuse To Cover Their Heads When Praying, By Clerics (The Guardian: Nigeria)
Five Nigerian clerics give their take on why many women refuse to cover their heads today. - Head Coverings – Some Exegetical Analysis of 1 Corinthians 11:1-16 (Thoughts of Francis Turretin)
“…she should consider that her testimony may encourage other wives to do the same – perhaps wives who have been reluctant for the same reason (fear/judgment). Indeed, this is one visible way in which a woman can fulfill her teaching role as described in Titus 2:5.” - Secular Quebec revolts against religious symbol ban (World Magazine)
“Muslims, Sikhs, Christians, Jews, and even those with no religious affiliation united in protest Sept. 14 in Montreal, Quebec, after the province’s government proposed a ban on wearing religious garb in public workplaces.”

About the author: Brother Greg is the founder of SermonIndex.net which started in December 2002. The ministry began with a burden for true genuine revival from the ministry of Leonard Ravenhill and specifically his book: “Why Revival Tarries.” The ministry of SermonIndex is continually reaching more people with classic preaching from the past and the message of revival.
When we consider our walks with the Lord we sometimes can put great emphasis on the larger areas that the Lord desires from us. Such things as repentance, baptism, the Lord’s Supper, fellowshipping with others and sharing our faith are to us bigger things in the Christian life. Yet the Lord has put every verse in the Scriptures for our encouragement and exhortation, that we take heed to these things. We should understand that the Lord provides direction and help to lead us in every area of life. We should not consider only some of the Lord’s commands and view the others as a choice. Everything in the Christian life is to be guided and filtered through the Holy Scriptures and God’s leading by the Holy Spirit. Read more
