Habitual Misleading of Who is the Church

Check out these covers to books and magazines below.  They all portray the Church of Jesus as a building. 

Is there any wonder why we have such a difficult time shedding this idea of "the Church" as a time (i.e. Lordsday, from 10:00 to 12:00), place, or just merely an architectural structure?

I propose leaving behind the word "church" and using either "congregation" as William Tyndale translated the greek word "ekklesia", or speak of the "gathering" of the People of the Way.
