In the spirit of Ecclesiastes 3,
"There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven:..." -- even wearing bizarre, unfamiliar clothing.
We were in a meeting with the leaders of the Pentecostal churches of Korea (COG, FourSquare, etc.) and the Koreans are much more formal than Americans... it was expected that those of us who had suits should wear them that evening. Like Paul, I am willing to "become all things to all men..."

heheheheheee - nope.

I am not sure how much I can share, but let's just say that the Midwest is NOT prone to any kinds of change, as a general kind of statement; and for me to be speaking in another COGOP on a Sunday Morning is, well, a huge, HUGE step; with a many, many, very specific circumstances leading to it.

I think you look very nice in a suit even though you probably would have been more comfortable in your Hawaiian shirt.

Thanks

My wife always thinks I look good in a suit, and helped me select this one.

How on earth can you see what kind of shoes I am wearing?? (They are classic black Bostonian men's dress shoes.)
