Well, Jesus said He would be with us all days, even until the consummation of the world (Matt 28:20). When we make the Sign of the Cross when passing a Catholic or Orthodox church, we are acknowledging His True Presence in the Blessed Sacrament.
Is He not always with us??? In us? And we in Him??
Or do you believe He is only inside the building itself...or as you noted..."God in a box." One of the most preposterous things I ever read.
