Really, they say, our clothes in church and beyond shouldn't be the same ...

What do you think and how you deal with old church members' opinion?

[Living Proof]

What? Who is they?

[USGold]

When I go to God's house-I dress modestly and in clean clothes-I don't give a fig if people don't think I should wear jeans to church, or a t-shirt--the point is to respect God not other people.

[Living Proof]

I personally wear clean clothes. I shower, brush my teeth, and fix my hair. I try and wear my best~for God of course.

Sometimes I think that we should give a fig about what other people think. I don't want to be a stumblingblock for those people that are in my church that think that things have to be done a certain way. Although I think that they are wrong, (most of the time) I try my best to keep the peace.

Course, the grestest problem is to find balance between your comfort and other's members.

Since I am in "God's house" all the time, and I strive to constantly worship Him, especially outside of church, I do not feel any special need to dress up for church. I wear what I wear normally, which is something clean and presentable. I don't like to look like a scrub in public, and it is the same in church.

I wear jeans and a t-shirt or sweatshirt. Sometimes I wear a nicer shirt, but not usually. When I was younger, I wore a skirt or dress and then I switched to black pants or dressier pants, but now it's jeans.

Jeans and a tee shirt.

[Kenny C.]

Usually a button up dress shirt, tucked in, with khaki pants and dress shoes. Either that or a dressy polo.

[Lilith.]

I wear skirts and sometimes heels. I love wearing skirts. Most people in my church value modesty over fancy clothes, so I've never heard anyone complain about the ones who wear jeans and t-shirts.

[H.M. Murdock]

I dress somewhat nicely out of respect for my pastor. Jeans, buttondown, chucks, belt, wallet chain, tie.

Black Jeans and a Black T...

[guitargeek6298]

Jeans and a T-shirt. To require something else would would prevent me from going to church, as that's all I own.

I try to wear my nicest jeans, though, and not the ones that are all ratty from work.

A stumbling block is when we cause another person to sin. This verse is constantly misused.

When someone gets their shorts in a bunch because they don't like the color of my shirt, that's their own sin that they're responsible for.

I where comfortable jeans to church. The family we've been meeting in the house of is a farming family, so they are wearing jeans. When i go to traditional churches though, i wear a skirt. gives me a great opportunity
