Why do all you guys dress up in suits and ties and stuff like that when you are preaching open air?

Not all of us do. I guess some dress that way as a way of distinguishing themselves from the world. I dress mostly to deal with the climate not to be 'seen' this way or that. For example, the picture to the left is me preaching at NC State, I wore a Mr. Rogers type of sweater that many would think that a professor would wear. I wore this because there was a chill in the air and I thought it would be appropriate for the collegiate setting.

If I'm street preaching, I wear normal clothing. But if I'm preaching in an academic atmosphere, I will dress more respectably. It just depends on the location.

When I preach on a college campus I dress in a shirt and tie, sometimes a suit, out of respect for the students and the atmosphere of learning. I'll typically dress more casually when out on the streets.

I do not wear a tie or suspenders when preaching on the street. I will usually wear jeans and a "Christianized" shirt.

I wore Adidas sandals with skull and cross bones dress socks the other day on a campus. I also had no tie on, just a dress shirt. I wanted to relate to the students more.

Greetings Christian,
Great to see you back, since my second coming.
I am hoping you burned that dreadful purple shirt at the stake last and sent it home to jesus.

I do both:
Dress shirt with slacks and tie and the Poindexter hat....
and,
Jeans with a Bible shirt and tennis shoes and the Gilligan hat.
Wear what God tells you to wear.
Isaiah did in chapter 20!
