Quote of the Day

While young love is certainly celebrated in the Bible, particularly in Song of Songs, there is nothing in Scripture to suggest that a woman is expected to maintain a youthful appearance throughout all phases of life.  Nowhere does the Bible teach that a woman shares responsibility for her husband's infidelity because she "let herself go."  And nowhere does it teach that outer beauty reflects inner beauty.

-- Rachel Held Evans, A Year of Biblical Womanhood, p. 105
