Together with Jack Eason
Together
Wednesday, December 13, 2023 - 14 minutes
As a world, we are going crazy! What is going on out there? While we are ALL trapped inside, I want to give you an update that should help you deal with isolation and loneliness.
As we fight the epidemic of loneliness, a new enemy of the connected community arrived. COVID-19 – the coronavirus – which has forced people to limit gatherings to 10 or less. All the activities that pull our community together are being canceled.
What can you do to fight loneliness in the midst of this chaotic situation?

Statistics show that, despite our connected world--and partly because of it--we are lonelier than ever. Social media tricks us into thinking that we are engaged in genuine friendships, except we never quite get beyond that feeling of being outside someone else's life and looking in every so often at what they choose to show the world. Instead of intimacy we get little more than what amounts to digital small talk. But there is a solution.
With plenty of good humor and practical advice, Jack Eason invites you to discover the benefits of doing life together with other brothers and sisters in Christ. Grounding his message in Scripture, Eason helps you
- learn the obstacles to real community
- reimagine what real friendship looks like
- discover a place of true belonging
- and more
If you're tired of feeling lonely, this encouraging and community-building book is just what you need.
