A brother needs your help. Apparently, he just joined a church
and he was discovered as a pianist. Well, he arrived church today and
the pastor refused to allow him enter due to his dressing.
Here’s how it was published on Nairaland.
What’s your candid view on this?
Recently
I joined a church, I know how to play piano but not really well. The
church has a standard pianist that plays literally on every church’s
event. When they discovered I knew how to play, they gave me the
opportunity to be playing at least 2 times a month.
Honestly, I
didn’t see myself as a church worker because I’ve never been to their
meeting before. I only play when they tell me to otherwise I stay at the
congregation. Last Sunday, I wore a shirt with a suit trouser and a
sandals to church, then I wasn’t expected to tuck in my shirt with a
sandals.
When I got to church, the pastor ordered me out of the
church to tuck in before coming inside and instructed the ushers to not
let me in until I tucked in my shirt. The church was still on and I got
so ashamed and embarrassed. Everybody’s eyes were on me during that
time.
As confused as I was, I angrily left the church that moment to another nearby church.
Then
I started thinking, Do we really have to tuck in our shirts to show how
holy we are in church? What do you think had prompted the pastor to
order me out? Do Christians have a dressing code? Will I be judged on
the final day for letting loose my shirt to church? What’s your view on
this?
