Models for Christ Brings Faith to Fashion

Contradicting Thoughts
I love to write, obviously because I’m a blogger. Later on in my career I would like to work for a magazine, and I gave some good thought to a fashion magazine, like say “Teen Vogue”. But there was some perplexity with the conflicting beliefs of my Christianity. The Fashion Industry seems like such a materialistic subordinate society.

A Christian Brand of Fashion

Models for Christ, exactly what it sounds like is a very interesting agency. If I had the potential, I wouldn’t mind working for this company.

The bodies at this Saturday night gathering are sculpted, the locks of hair full and wavy, the faces made for the covers of magazines.

Such physical perfection is a South Beach staple, on its sun-kissed shoreline and in its velvet-roped dance clubs. But these young men and women are not here to find a weekend hookup or to imbibe a $15 drink. They’re here for God.

“Since its 1984 founding in New York, Models for Christ has sought to bring faith to fashion – spirituality to an industry that puts a premium on sex appeal. The non-denominational organization has since expanded to 19 other major fashion centers, including Los Angeles, London, Paris, Milan and Tokyo – and hundreds participate.”

One could easily loose track of faith in this sort of society, but Models for Christ is a completely different option. The Models stray from any kind of profane or sexual advertising, keeping their morals in balance.

Models For Christ Also do quite a bit of Ministry work.

“Models for Christ has prayer groups throughout the US fashion hotspots, as well as international cities like Paris. They also participate in charity work and student ministries, and take underprivileged kids on yacht cruises around Manhatten. Their mission is to offer Christian support and uphold Christian values in an industry widely known for its lack of both. Calenberg and his wife Laura continue to head Models for Christ and are grooming a new, younger couple to take the reigns and continue the ministry.”
