Anxiety and loneliness seem to be common features of living in our culture. Most of us know more people than the previous generation and we have the capability to be well connected. Yet we rarely go deep in relationships, remaining independent and self sufficient. For me, my ‘what if…’ list is long and I’ve been negligent to share my list with God or with trusted friends. But I’d we believe Christ is our solid foundation to loving, our anxieties and fears can be matched by His presence and wisdom. How can we encourage each other to go deeper, encouraging each other to lean completely on His presence?
“The church today has been compared to a football game with twenty-two people on the field in desperate need of rest, and fifty thousand people in the stands in desperate need of exercise.” - Greg Ogden, Transforming Discipleship
