| During the Divine service I wear a "Wittenberg Gown" . . . we Calvinists simply borrowed Luther's practice.
Under it I wear a shirt and tie, but am conflicted about that, since this is business attire. Yet, I tried the dog collar but it was uncomfortable as well as confusing to people. If I could find some sort of dress shirt without a place for a necktie I'd wear that.
The only time I wear a suit is at Classis and Synod meetings.
