Struggling with ‘informal’ worship

Good morning all,

I’m hoping to gain some perspective and correction if necessary.

I’ve always felt it strange that people attend church in casual clothing, but especially so when Pastors wear them. They’re delivering the most important information a person can hear, guiding people in their noblest pursuit to glorify and worship God… should we not present ourselves as best as our means allow?

I think the most recent instance that brought this to mind was the amount of criticism President Zelensky received for not wearing a suit to meet President Trump, a man, yet so many of Zelensky’s detractors likely dress informally themselves when they meet with God in worship at church.

Of course we’re always in the presence of God, but it seems only right that we do our best to present ourselves well when we’re going to church specifically to worship and commune with God.

Reformed theology is critical of Catholicism and Orthodoxy, but despite their doctrinal misunderstanding, they do, in my opinion, understand reverence in a way that is seemingly lost in Protestant churches.

I feel my grievance is justifiable, at least to some extent, because clearly there are lines, it just seems like that line has been pushed further and further as time goes on.

Thank you and God bless.
