Thank you. I so LOVE her testimony and it's really encouraging to see young women demonstrating some modesty, even in their careers. When I have a chance, I'm going to read some more!!! I'm glad that you had some great "sisters in Christ" time :) :) Love and hugs from the ocean shores of California, Heather :) Wow, this is fantastic. Thank you.

We are all at different stages in life and at different stages in our walk with the Lord. What an amazing example she can set for little ones, and teenagers that look up to her. While watching her interview on Fox I was trying to keep in mind that she may not have control over what pictures are shown about her. Thank you Courtney for sharing this! Have a wonderful evening.

She is an extraordinary woman!! I love how Christians are rising up within the public eye (Time Tebow, Kylie, Rick Sandtorm-just to name a few) who are not ashamed of Christ. They speak boldly and live a life of integrity based on their convictions. Gets me so excited!!! This is the kind of "super model" I want my little girl to grow up to be like. :) I was so hoping you would post about your meeting :) ! She is an extraordinary woman!!

I'm not impressed either. But then again, I believe the entire modeling industry is just a pocket of vanity. *shrug* I'm not judging her heart and I realize people can be at different stages in their spiritual walk and that I am not without sin, but the Bible also says that we will know someone by her fruits, and from what I can see, her fruit isn't all that different. Some of the dresses they showed her in after this conviction were just as immodest, IMO, as the underwear. I do pray that if this was truly a conviction (and not a publicity stunt) for her, that the Lord continues to guide her. Jackie,

Forgive me, but I am taken aback by your comment. She may not be dressing in tops that button to her chin, but it's definitely an improvement and it's obvious she is trying and she is maturing. It takes time. :) We will always be growing and God will always be stretching us. Oh wow. Forgive me, but I am taken aback by your comment.

Your Gentleness Challenge will certainly assist me in my desire to give up yelling for lent - and, hopefully, forever. Thank you for your time and guidance to help us as mothers give up "perfection for progress" (perfection- another thing to give up for lent). :-) As my family settles down from the Mardi Gras festivities, I am preparing my heart for the lenten season.

If you go to her website, it's far from being modest - with seductive pictures and immodest apparel. I'm glad she is taking a stand and being modest, perhaps in a way that seems more modest than wearing lingerie for everyone. I also agree with Jackie in that her interviews continue to go back and show her in her old images. I have seen other models, like Kathy Ireland, make a stand and go a completely different direction. I'm glad she has had a change of heart - it sounds more like she has recently become a Christian, but that's really only something between her and the Lord. I hope she continues in her walk with Christ to grow more and more concerned about modest apparel. I'm sure her heart and motives are pure and I hope that she can get discipled by an older women who can give her great wisdom, along with her pursuit for God's will.

I just told my 9-year old daughter her (brief) story/testimony and nearly burst into tears! It really touches me when people follow God's calling and take huge leaps of faith! My daughter does her ballet lessons at our local mall (in the basement). But the coffee shop I often go to is right across from Victoria's Secret. My children have been trained to look at the coffee shop the entire time they are walking, and if they happen to get a glimpse of the 10 feet poster models, they declare rather loudly "Ewwww! Yucky!!!" Anyways, that's the reason I shared her story with my daughter. She was so happy to hear about someone taking a stand for what's right. Bravo!

Just like everyone we all grow, we grow at different pace spiritually and maybe haven't quite gotten that conviction to change the way she dresses but she will get there gradually. We can't look at pictures and judge a person. We need to know their motives, their intent, and hers is God, she is seeking and growing in the Lord. I agree with Courtney.
