This hit home. We left a great church for this very reason. We could share our burdens, but we had no one to “do life with”.

Our greatest time of growth was when we belonged to a small group that we could be honest with and “do life with”. We only left the church because we moved from the area.

I long for that kind of fellowship, and I feel a sense of loneliness and emptiness. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
