I'm aware of some pastors who have asked people to dress casually so as not to offend people who come in wearing whatever they have. Others ask the congregation to dress in their best, because they have the perspective that you should wear your best when you go to "God's house."
So are pastors wrong to do that?
And are you truly offended by suits and ties, or was that just TIC?
