That is what saying "lets have church 2 times a month" is. And, any church that only meets twice a month would only be able to offer the spiritual equivalent of a hamburger happy meal...small, substanceless and without nutritional content.
So I ask, if you only want to go twice a month? why bother going at all?
Go fishing, work on old cars, do something you enjoy. Because with such a lackadasical attitude toward the thing God ordained to be there for your strength and edification, enjoyment down here might be all the enjoyment you get.
I hate to resort to tired old scriptures but,
Heb 10:25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting oneanother: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
Heb 10:26 For if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
What is that in modern day english?
1. Don't stop getting together with God's people, like thos other folks are doing.
2. As you see the day aproaching, do it even more.

If one can't go a week or a month and still not live a godly life without a church. Id say there something very wrong with their church teaching to make them so weak!
