She is a new female preacher who preaches with her breasts out, and men are flocking to her church! With women dressing provocative and men wearing skinny jeans to church, do I think churches need to enforce a dress code? Yes. Before I explain my reasoning, I want to say that coming to church dressed provocative is Etiquette 101; that's a no-no. Some people come to church to hear the word, and how can they focus on the pastor if they see some woman dressed like the club? It's disrespectful to those who have respect for God's house. In the Bible, when the moneychangers used God's temple to conduct business, God was upset and drove them out of his temple. These young people have no respect for older people anymore. I think there should be a dress code; they follow it for the club so they should follow it for church. Sad truth. It's good they show up at all, and you don't want to discourage them because they dress poorly. Maybe cover church etiquette in the sermon. At the same time, God says come as you are, so I feel folks should not be thrown out of church for not following it. You address it, let them stay & listen, and over time, the example set by the body of believers in the congregation will rub off on them. I went to a few churches where women who dressed poorly were given a bag to change clothes. Many would go into their closets and give away what they thought would fit. The next time they showed up, they were there for the Word.
