CELEBRITY

I saw an adult woman with many piercings and tattoos in church, and I felt uncomfortable. Am I wrong to think there are standards?

Last Sunday, I faced a moment of personal reflection as I entered the sanctuary. I noticed a woman in her 40s, covered in tattoos and with multiple piercings.

Growing up, I was always taught that church was a place of reverence and humility, where modest clothing reflected respect for the sacred space. Her bold appearance challenged my deeply ingrained assumptions about what is considered “appropriate” attire in church.

I began to ask myself: are my views on church clothing still relevant today? Should we even have expectations about how people dress in places of worship?
