One of the most difficult things to deal with in this life is loneliness.  Tough situations are made tougher when one doesn't have a support system.  Even in our prison system the worst level of punishment someone can get (other than capital punishment) is solitary confinement.  We realize that there is something grievous about isolation - and isolation is a killer.

Isolation brings death and destruction because we were created for community.  God exists in community with Himself (the Trinity), and as image bearers of Him, He wired us to thrive in community.

Today Pastor Rich will discuss that ministry, like life is a team sport - it goes much better when you have a team around you for encouragement and support in good and bad times.

Colossians 4:7-18
