Is Attending Church Mandatory?

Moody Radio’s Up for Debate! discusses whether attending church is mandatory at all. Is attending church really necessary—or, is it okay for Christians to find other ways of worshipping and connecting with other believers? Moody Radio explored this issue with author Wayne Jacobsen, who says attending organized church is optional—and Jonathan Leeman, who believes it’s mandatory.

God ordained the local church for fellowship, edification, service, worship, and the ordinances. Someone who professes to be a Christian and disputes the value of the local church really needs to examine himself.
