Church has changed and I am not sure how to handle it!
People used to dress up for church...
On Easter Sunday I debated on whether or not to wear a tie. Nothing fancy, just a dress shirt and a blue tie.
I was to play drums, so I wanted to look good up on stage. My wife helped me pick one out.
It's our first Easter at our new church and I was unsure of the "dress code", so to speak!
I went with the tie and wouldn't you know it...no one else on staff had one on!
My pal Cory even said, his cross was the only thing he needed around his neck that morning!
I took off the tie and the service went on! It was wonderful!
It's got me thinking...is it a good thing that we are not being super religious about how we go to church, or are we losing our reverence for God by not caring about formal attire?
Granted, even though there were no formal suits in the congregation, everyone looked good!
Do we need to bring back the suit and tie in church or just leave things as they are so new people don't feel the pressure to conform?

No suit and tie required! I think Jesus just wants us to bring our hurts, victories and heart to church for Him.
Pretty sure in the 1st century church they didn't wear their best toga's/robes to meet. In fact that kind of dressing up was considered showing off how much better, or more spiritual the Pharisees and others thought themselves!
