Controversial gospel musician Broda Sammy has asked Christians to consider unbelievers in their choice of clothing in other to win them unto Christ.

"Just because you are a Christian doesn't mean you should dress like a pauper. Dress fashionably. Christians are supposed to look fashionable to attract 'worldly' people to God. So when they see you dressing good, they will be like, ‘I can also dress like that and come to church."

"Just because you are a Christian doesn't mean you should dress like a pauper. Dress fashionably. Christians are supposed to look fashionable to attract 'worldly' people to God. So when they see you dressing good, they will be like, ‘I can also dress like that and come to church," Broda Sammy said in an interview with Hitz FM on October 14, 2025.

The musician shared an experience to illustrate his point, revealing that he once invited a woman to church who declined because she said she didn’t have the appropriate attire.

"Many people have left the church because they were discriminated against for their dressing, or because they had dreadlocks or because they had tattoos. But those are rather the people that should be in church," Broda Sammy claimed.

Brother Sammy says his way of dressing has now become his way of winning unbelievers over to Christ.

He added, “That is why I have changed my life. No one in Ghana wears better suits than me. I dress this way to prove that Christianity can look good. It is to show that no matter how you look, Christ still loves you, so come to him.”

Meanwhile, renowned gospel artiste and evangelist Cecilia Marfo urged pastors to embrace a compassionate approach in reaching out to sinners, emphasizing the importance of encouragement over condemnation.

Speaking in an interview with Fiifi Prat on Kingdom FM, Cecilia Marfo stressed that believers should not harshly criticize those who are not in Christ for sins such as adultery, fornication, or perceived inappropriate dressing.

She explained that, instead of pushing people away from the gospel, Christians should focus on guiding and mentoring them gently, encouraging them toward a relationship with Christ.

"Any pastor who condemns adultery, fornication, or the clothing choices of worldly individuals is misguided, as we must not confront sinners about their sins but instead gently encourage them to turn to Jesus," she stated.

The woman of God emphasized that the current generation needs a more thoughtful approach, as sermons filled with judgment could alienate people from the church.

"If you judge them harshly, you push them away," she added.

Sharing her preaching style, Cecilia Marfo said, "If you observe me preaching, you will be moved to tears. I make people realize that no matter how significant their sins may seem, Jesus came for them."

On the other hand, Ghanaian musician Kwabena Kwabena has stated that he no longer goes to church as part of his efforts to stay away from temptations. According to him, some female church members dress inappropriately to church.

“Let me tell you something, even if you have dresses that tighten your ass, you don’t wear them to church. You have places you can wear those dresses to, but when you are going to the house of God, there should be a purpose why you are going there, and please, we must all start to behave in a certain manner…

“For me, it’s a shame that, up until now, no pastor has spoken against it. What has the house of God turned into? Honestly, it has justified why I don’t feel like stepping into any church,” he is quoted to have said.

Among the many things he also mentioned that pulled him out of the church was what he said was the “inappropriate behaviour” of gospel musicians who prioritise money by engaging in indecent means to promote their works.

“Money is just a byproduct of creativity. In today’s world, because of material things, it’s important that we kind of focus on money, but I can say confidently that we focus so much on money, that’s why we are losing the craft.

“Recently, I saw something that gospel musicians have started doing, and it saddens me. It’s very sad… Because I write gospel music and I know what gospel music is supposed to do, I became very sad that gospel musicians have actually started touring on worldly things,” he said.

In an interview the Aso hit-maker said it was not right for ladies to wear dresses that tighten their buttocks to church.

“Let me tell you something, even if you have dresses that tighten your ass, you don’t wear them to church. You have places you can wear those dresses to, but when you are going to the house of God, there should be a purpose why you are going there, and please, we must all start to behave in a certain manner…
