La Mode Modeste



What is modesty? How people define it depends somewhat on their background, world view and culture.  If you are searching for what modesty is, or how you would like to live a modest lifestyle, I suggest you read a number of these - even ones not in your faith tradition - because they all contain things worth thinking about.
