In a world more connected than ever before, we’re paradoxically facing a global loneliness epidemic. Dr. Jake Thurston, lead pastor and author of ”You Need Friends,” joins host Rodney Olsen to explore how we’ve lost the art of meaningful connection and what we can do to reclaim it. From the architectural changes that replaced front porches with garages to the rise of tribalism and social media’s hollow promises of connection, Jake reveals the complex factors contributing to our isolation.
Drawing from his decade of research and the ancient Christian practice of spiritual friendship, Jake offers practical solutions for building the deep, vulnerable relationships our souls crave. He discusses how the decline of faith communities, our fear of vulnerability, and our individualistic culture have left us surrounded by people yet profoundly alone. This conversation provides hope and actionable steps for anyone longing to move from surface-level interactions to life-changing spiritual friendships that can transform both our mental health and our relationship with God.
