A Cover for Glory

A Biblical Defense for Headcoverings

By: Dale Partridge

Narrated by: Lee Goettl

For nearly 2000 years, virtually every Christian woman wore a headcovering during worship. Today, the practice has nearly disappeared. What happened?

Dale Partridge walks Christians verse by verse through 1 Corinthians 11:

2-16 to help them understand the doctrine of headcoverings and how these biblical symbols visually preserve God’s design for men and women.

But more than that, he demonstrates that when these visual symbols are eliminated from the church, society's definitions of men and women are forgotten. Dale argues that by restoring this biblical practice, Christians can uphold God's plan for gender roles and restore order among God’s people.

Great Read!

I picked up A Cover for Glory during a season of my life where I’ve been intentionally seeking to draw closer to God. It’s a time that can feel lonely in my spiritual walk, and I’ve been praying to become a steady, faithful example of devotion within my home; praying that I can also encourage husband.

In this book, Dale Partridge gives a straightforward and Scripture-centered explanation of headcoverings that is both approachable and deeply rooted in biblical context. Whether one finds themselves in full agreement or not, the book challenges the reader to look at 1 Corinthians 11 with fresh eyes and an open heart.

I appreciated how straightforward and easy to follow it was-thought-provoking without feeling academic or overwhelming; there is much here I will need to reflect on as I go along in my pursuit to know Him more and try to find ways to honor Him in my daily life.

A meaningful, timely read for women who are exploring deeper devotion, biblical traditions, and personal obedience.
