Raising Godly Girls

Episode Summary

Special guest Chelsea Glover has tons of tips for raising godly girls. She is the wife of Pastor Chad Glover and the mother of three daughters. Today’s podcast covers topics from modesty to identity, comparison, and even preparing them for marriage. Focusing on the holiness of God is something the Glovers integrate into their parenting. It helps to encourage their daughters to be set apart from the toxic culture in our world, and understand that they are God’s girls, and be held to God’s standard. (Leviticus 20:26) They are reminded to be set apart in all aspects, how they dress, how they talk, and how they carry themselves. When it comes to modesty, Chelsea takes her daughters back to Genesis, showing them how God clothed Adam and Eve to cover their shame. We’re reminded of the gospel every time we get dressed in the morning, and how God cares for us to clothe ourselves in Christ’s righteousness. We’re held to a higher standard as Christians, and everything we do in our lives is important to God. Chelsea says, a girl's mind is a battlefield, and training her to take every thought captive is crucial when struggling with comparison, and even listening to misinformation and worldly doctrine that may be taught outside of your home. Lastly, the Glovers prepare their daughters for marriage by modeling a healthy marriage in their home every day. No one is perfect, but putting on display how they love and care for each other's needs is exactly what a little girl needs to strive for God’s best!
