Christians wear different types of clothing depending on the country or region where they live and the sect to which they belong. Christians dress in a range of styles.

The Bible does not offer precise instructions on how Christians should dress. In Deuteronomy, the Bible states that clothes made of a wool-linen mixture should not be worn. Most modern Christians, however, believe that such rules were rendered obsolete after the New Covenant. In 1 Timothy and 1 Peter, women are instructed to dress modestly and with decency and propriety. They should not wear jewelry or gold, nor should they braid or style their hair. Some Christians interpret this very literally, while others do not.

The only dietary restriction practiced by members of some Christian sects is the practice of not eating meat or eating only fish on Fridays during Lent. Some Christians also symbolically fast. Otherwise, Christians eat whatever foods they enjoy and have access to.

In some denominations of Christianity, the consumption of alcohol is greatly discouraged.

Although specific foods are not usually forbidden, Christians are encouraged to practice restraint when eating. Gluttony is considered one of the seven deadly sins. Fasting is considered a way of getting closer to God or of reaffirming a commitment, and many Christians fast for periods of time as a matter of their commitment to God. Roman Catholics are also asked to sacrifice a food or drink that they enjoy during the period of Lent as a sign of their commitment to God. Some practitioners of the Christian faith have perpetuated recipes based on Bible verses.
