Proper clothing for preaching!

A place to snark and vent about CoC doctrine and/or our experiences in the CoC. This is a place for SUPPORT and AGREEMENT only, not a place to tell someone their experience and feelings are wrong, or why we disagree with them.

I've seen preachers in jeans and t shirts, even in the most hardcore conservative cocs

I don't care what a Church of Christ preacher wears because I'm not going to a Church of Christ.

But---for the sake of other people I hope they don't go naked. Imagine the old ugly overweight preacher up their preaching naked. eeeeewwwww.

This is a fairly modern phenomenon; In the not so long ago, it would have been unthinkable for a man to preach without at least a collared shirt and tie. I've seen them lay aside the suit coat on really hot days and some folks would even grumble about that.
