The Church Within is the third studio album by American metal band The Obsessed. It was released in 1994 by Columbia Records and Hellhound Records, and was their final album before their 16-year breakup from 1995 to 2011. Columbia Records released two promo singles to support the album, "Streetside"/"Blind Lightning" and "To Protect and to Serve"/"Mental Kingdom".
The album was reissued on CD and 2LP in 2013 on Real Gone Music with unseen photos, liner notes, and two bonus tracks from the same sessions in 1994.
