Loneliness
About a year ago I was sitting with some friends and talking about how hard it is to make friends as adults. We talked about how lonely it is for each of us and realized that we all, each one of us, felt alone.
Each. One. Of Us.
And since we were all pastors, we wondered, what should the church be doing? Where is God in this feeling? What difference does our faith make? What could we do about it? Was there anything that we could do together, so we didn’t feel alone. From that conversation we decided to collaborate together and build a resource for each other and our churches. Together we gathered art and music and theater and graphics and scriptures and liturgy and created “Loneliness: Searching for Resurrection in a Modern Epidemic.”
