Southland Christian Church

The Cutting Room Floor | Modest vs Manipulative


Listen Later

What happens when we stop chasing approval and start living from design?

In this week's episode of The Cutting Room Floor, Neil, Jess, and Jon unpack the conversation behind the sermon on modesty, a topic that's often misunderstood and sometimes avoided. Jon shares the deeper biblical meaning behind the word modest, why it's rooted in the nature of God, and how living a "well-arranged" life brings freedom, not restriction. Together they explore what it looks like to find order in the chaos, reclaim identity in Christ, and take one small step toward living with purpose and peace.

This week, take one step toward being "well arranged." Whether it's your wardrobe, your words, or your work, ask God to help you bring order to what feels chaotic and let your life reflect His beauty and design.

Hosts: Neil Gregory, Jess McKenney, and Jon Weece

About Southland Christian Church

Southland is one church meeting in multiple locations across central Kentucky. We believe Jesus came for the lost and the broken, which means there's a place for everyone here. We want what He wants: for heaven to be really crowded. Around here, that means we worship defiantly, speak truth unashamedly, and extend grace generously.
