Are you implying that a person who is not going to church but otherwise has a fullfilling, satisfying and reverent life without needing the church can't be close to God


I don't know about him, but I will state that you can't be an obedient Christian if you aren't serving others and encouraging other Christians as part of some kind of community of believers.

Going to church isn't about what you get out of it. It's about what you contribute to it.

Ask not what Jesus can do for you. Ask what you can do for Jesus.

(Although I prefer the We Choose The Moon speech in this context.)

I disagree. If you aren't being fed by attending your Church then your contribution will grow stale or it becomes rote.
