Loneliness is killing us. Literally. And we've barely noticed.

We've built a world that is frictionless, individualized, optimized for exactly what we want — and somehow ended up more isolated than ever. Friendship has become the greatest casualty of modern life. And we don't even know it.

In this sermon we sit with Ecclesiastes 4 — an ancient, brutally honest text that turns out to understand our moment better than we do. We'll wrestle with what's actually driving our ambition, why getting everything we want keeps leaving us empty, and what a genuinely different way of life might look like.

It should bother you more than it does.

Week 1 of KNOWN — a series on friendship, loneliness, and what it means to be truly known.
