The Jesus Revolution | A New Social Reality

Forming deep, meaningful relationships takes time, and it cannot happen if we allow the busyness we adopt and the isolation it causes to win the day. Deep relationships only form when our lives are unhurried and communally grounded.

And it is the desire of your heart. You want to be in a life-giving community. You want deep, lasting friendships. You want to find your people for the years ahead and the moment life ends on this side.

But there's a problem with getting what we want—the pace of our lives has led to our isolation, which leads to incredible loneliness. Researchers realised that Americans were lonelier than ever before the pandemic hit, leading them to conclude that we have an epidemic of loneliness. - Cigna Health Group
