Local Church Relationships: Holy or Casual?

In what way are the relationships that we have among us to be considered holy, specifically in local churches?

Or, on the other hand, in what ways are those relationships just the result of casual or intentional choices among various options that people make, that is, to associate with church "A" instead of church "B"?

Where in scripture can we find guidance about this?

I wrote the questions above as a quick email to Igniter Ministries. They are planning on working with us on a "community building" month in October.

I'd like to hear what any of you think who are reading this.

Please comment or otherwise contact me and let me know.

Thanks.
