There is a debate among Christians: is music itself amoral? That question, while appropriate to ask, is actually viewing music from the wrong perspective, or more specifically a too limited perspective. It is amazing how much of the debate centers around the opinions of people and very little is based on the Bible.

Myths About the Headcovering
There are a lot of false teachings about the head covering, false teachings that have been passed from commentary to commentary, from professor to student, from pastor to lay person. We have heard them so often many believe them to be true, but research shows clearly that they are false.
Is the Headcovering For Today?
For years the question has circulated through various denominations: should women cover their heads? The best way to answer any question about the Bible is to look at the Bible itself.
The Style and Size of the Headcovering
Should a headcovering be a certain style or color? How much should it cover? Should a church require a specific style?

Why Non-Christians and worldly Christians are so prosperous financially
