God created us to live in community, not to self-isolate. But when we do experience loneliness, to what promises can we turn? Welcome, everyone. This is a special episode of the podcast based on what’s happening in the world right now. We don’t plan to have a lot of coronavirus episodes, but a few topics should get addressed, and that includes the topic of loneliness. This season of self-quarantine is abnormal to most of us. And that means the feeling of loneliness is a reality for all of us. We cannot visit retirement homes. Closed off to us now are churches and workplaces and restaurants. The sense of isolation and loneliness so common before this virus has been amplified by this quarantine. No surprise, we’re hearing this theme in our inbox as listeners write in. So, Pastor John, what would you say to the lonely during this season?
