All right, some of you raced ahead of me on this one. Some cook faster than others. Now I’m ready to talk about us. Clothing styles have changed over the years. What was once unacceptable for wearing in public is now commonplace. What was once expected as minimal dress for a Sunday assembly is now out of place.

How should we dress for church? Here are some answers I’ve heard:

• We should dress with the best clothes we have. We should ask ourselves, “How would I dress if I were going to meet with the President?” (Yeah, I know. Lots of you look at this president differently than other presidents. If you just can’t bear to think of meeting with Obama, pretend it’s Nixon)
• We should dress comfortably, like someone who is going to meet with close friends and family.
• We should dress as well as we do for a business meeting. If we wear a suit in our work, we should wear a suit to church. If we wear polos and khakis, wear polos and khakis. (Sorry ladies… you’ll have to come up with your own equivalents)
• We should dress cleanly, but not too fancy. We don’t want to make outsiders feel uncomfortable when they visit.

Have I missed any? What’s your theory behind how we should dress? Dare I ask if anyone has any biblical basis for their choice?
