How to Tie a Necktie with a Kent Knot

The Kent-knot is a slightly modified version of the Four-in-Hand knot. It is one of the smallest tie knots making it a perfect choice for very thick ties worn with dress shirts that have a narrow collar spread. Since tying this necktie knot required much less of the tie’s length, it is also a good choice knot for big & tall men wearing a regular length tie – although men taller than 6 foot 3 inches are better off wearing Extra Long Ties.

Kent Necktie Knot Instructions:



Lay the necktie around your neck so that the wide end hangs about 4-5 inches lower than the narrow end. Start by having the inside of your tie face your body, but then flip the wide side of the tie over so that the stitching is showing.


Take the wide end of the tie and cross it behind the narrow end.


Now take the wide end of the tie and loop it over the narrow end. The “good side” of the necktie should be showing now.


Wrap the wide end of your necktie between your neck and the tie and pull through the loop.


Slightly pull tight, center the knot, and flip over you collars. Finished!

“Become A Dutiful Watchman”

Key Verse “So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me” (Ezekiel 33:7). Text —Ezekiel 33:4-9 Message A watchman is a security guard. He helps to ensure the safety of a building or an environment. The story of Rick Rescorla is a good example of a dutiful watchman. He was the head of security for Morgan Stanley in the World Trade Center’s South Tower. He was said to have regularly conducted escape drills with employees which they heeded, thereby saving their lives during the 9/11 attacks in New York. He equally led people down the stairs to safety. It is believed that his being dutiful saved the lives of more than 2,500 employees. He was not only proactive by drilling the employees before the terrible event, he also risked his life to guide many people out to safety. By our text of today, beloved, you are set a watchman. Wherever you are is your duty post until you receive a call to duty elsewhere. Barnabas and Saul were busy with the brethren in the church in Antioch before the Holy Ghost called them to missionary work (Acts 13:1-3). Today is World Day for Safety and Health at Work. Pray as led. Quote Beloved, you are a watchman Challenge Watchman, warn youths and all of the danger of hell. Prayer for today Holy Father, help me to warn the world with your word.
