If the preacher is preaching the Word, I don't care if he's wearing a suit or a pair of jeans.

I think it is a function of culture. Less than 65% of american men own a suit.

If you make wearing a suit a requirement to attend, you automatically lose 35% of men who will not hear the truth of the gospel.

I agree. My suit collection has diminished over the years as both work and church have moved to a more casual environment.

I'm good with that. Last time I checked Jesus and the disciples didn't wear a coat and tie!

Of course, that never worked with my dad...he replied they walked also when I wanted a car!

I cannot think of a church that I attended where wearing a suit was a requirement. We didn’t have ministers issuing decrees on attire, they tended to focus on teaching the Word.
