Am I wrong ?

Entering church last Sunday, I was struck by a woman in her 40s with tattoos and piercings—an appearance that challenged my deeply ingrained views on “appropriate” church attire. Growing up, modest clothing in church was a sign of reverence. This encounter made me question: should we still hold expectations on how people dress in worship spaces?

After the service, I politely suggested to her that a subdued look might be better for church. Her response—“How I look has nothing to do with you”—made me realize my discomfort was likely rooted in outdated beliefs about church attire. As society values personal expression more, perhaps it’s time to reassess what “appropriate” really means.

Traditional church attire—modest, simple, unassuming—once conveyed respect. But today, tattoos, piercings, and unique clothing are common forms of self-expression. Shouldn’t church, a place of unity and compassion, welcome everyone, regardless of appearance?

Honoring traditions can coexist with respecting individuality. Some may dress modestly to honor heritage, while others express faith through personal style. Striking a balance fosters an inclusive worship environment.

At its core, church is about acceptance and connection. Like Jesus, who welcomed everyone, we too should focus on the sincerity of one’s faith, not their outward appearance. Welcoming diversity enriches the community and deepens our understanding of faith.
