Is church membership really necessary?

Has church membership ever felt more like a maze of requirements than the Gospel? A caller recently asked about her church requiring membership to take communion. Does fellowship really depend on formal paperwork?

In this video, I dive into what it truly means to be part of the body of Christ. We’re talking about an organism, not an organization. Hebrews encourages us to gather but doesn’t mention forms, sign-ups, classes, or tithing quotas. Whether it’s a coffee shop chat, a church service, or praying on a friend’s porch, gathering is about encouragement, not pressure.
