Being one of the few bloggers that blogs regularly about head covering, you’d think that would be enough incentive to motivate and excite me toward head covering.
But I’m just like anyone else.
After the initial honeymoon phase wears off, head covering becomes just a regular part of my life. It’s special, for sure. But no more special than praying or serving.
So, I was driving to a blogging conference and it got me thinking about how I, as a head-covering blogger, felt like I’d been in a head covering slump.
I covered at church and during personal prayer (mostly), but where I once covered — during mealtime prayers or occasionally out of the house — I wasn’t.
I know covering isn’t the end all be all, but I wanted to get to the bottom of this head covering conundrum and figure out how to reignite my passion for covering again.
I’ve been doing some personal assessment and thought about the issue and wanted to share with my head covering community what I’ve discovered. Read more
My husband likes to pull my head covering down when my hair starts to show, but I don’t really mind if my hair peaks out. He also prefers me to wear head coverings that aren’t associated with certain religious groups. As beautiful as the hijab looks to me, he wouldn’t want me to wear that particular style. So what’s a wife to do when her views of head covering don’t align with her husband’s views?
The purpose of a head covering is to honor our head (which is man), but if we dishonor our husband’s wishes for how/when to cover aren’t we undoing the entire purpose of covering in the first place?
Navigating the waters of our husband’s wishes is one of the biggest issues I’ve seen plague the 600+ women of the head covering group I’m a part of on Facebook. If you find your desire to cover in some way at odds with your husband’s wishes, believe me: You. Are. Not. Alone.Read more
Let’s face it. Head covering in America isn’t commonplace. Of course, head covering is prevalent in some areas — like in Muslim or Jewish communities and an even smaller percentage exists among Christian communities. But what about in other countries? What does head covering look like in ancient places like Egypt, Israel or India? Does it still exist? And if so, what is it’s purpose? What will these answers teach us?
As a head covering Christian woman I was excited to see the practice first hand on our recent trip to Hyderabad, India. Immediately upon arrival, I realized the difference between my American culture and their India one: head covering is everywhere in India. Read more

Why Christian Women Want To Wear Head Coverings (Super Radical Christian Writer Chick) “…most people’s take on head coverings. If you wear one you must: a) be in a cult b) be a Muslim c) be in one of those Mennonite denominations NONE of these are true for me! I’m just a Christian who is committed to figuring out God’s true will for her life — in all aspects.”
So Long, Cute Hair Do (After “Normal” Ends) “Last spring, with all of the stress, frustration of what was going on in our marriage, and my decision to take over all aspects of our family, I just got tired of my long hair…This time, I went super short”
Let’s Get Traditional, Traditional. (A Kiwi and an Emu) We read 1 Corinthians 11:2-16 and you immediately see that Paul considers headcovering to be part of a tradition. It’s very clear. But to some people it’s not. So let me quickly (hah!) run through the reasons we can know that Paul is talking about a tradition here.”
