In recent years many questioned the role of women in the church. Some said that Biblical principles are not applicable in this day and age, saying that women are free to do. While the Word is clear on manhood and womanhood, some say that these Biblical principles are irrelevant. Fortunately, some organizations are affirming Biblical principles. Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC) upholds male and female roles based on Biblical principles. Recently ERLC hosted a webinar – “Why Women are a Vital Part of the Flourishing of the Church”
Each situation is blessing, even sometimes--or quite often--we don't see it. Thoughts of a thirty-something Christian woman. Trusting God with all my heart, although struggles do not make it easy.

They Notice: How Church Children Pay Attention to Adults at Church
One time at church a young girl, she is twelve, approached me. She said, "I really like your scarf. It looks nice on you. It's nice." I smiled and thanked her for the compliment. A Few weeks later, I saw her at church. She was wearing a hat. Her mother doesn't practice head covering. Her father is a deacon at my current church. He views head covering matter as a personal choice. Unfortunately, I didn't have the opportunity to talk to her about the head covering.

Head Covering Reflection/Update
It has been over five years since I started to cover my head during worship. At first I covered only during the church services: Breaking of Bread, the main service, and the evening service. It lasted for about three years.
Approximately three years ago I started to cover my head during Bible Study, choir practice, choir worship leading, and Prayer Breakfast. During church cleanup I wear a head wrap. Since 2014 I adopted a habit of having a head scarf at hand, one in my purse and backpack. Throughout the day I may throw a covering on my head whenever I need to pray. I don’t mind if people watch, although I try to find the least crowded place possible.

Recovering of Head Covering
Head covering--tradition or something that point towards the order of creation, something that angels also witness?
