Is your phone quietly destroying your community?
We live in a culture of radical individualism—and the result is a loneliness epidemic. But Jesus didn’t design us to follow Him alone. In Week 2 of our Better Together series, we talk about the #1 destroyer of community and one of the biggest reasons people feel isolated today: distraction—especially the kind we carry in our pockets.

Brad teaches from 2 John 12, where John says some things are too important for “paper and ink”—they must be shared face to face. In a world of texts, screens, and highlight reels, we’re more connected than ever… and yet more lonely, anxious, and disconnected than ever.

This message is a call back to the power of presence—showing up, staying close, and choosing real, Christ-centered relationships over cheap digital substitutes. We look at the early church in Acts 2:42–47 and what happens when God’s people are truly together: devotion, fellowship, prayer, generosity, unity, and spiritual power.

This week, put the phone down and pick people up. Let’s build a church where no one stands alone.
