If you've ever felt that ache to connect and belong, you're not alone: three out of every five people are suffering from loneliness. We all experience moments . . . or long seasons of heart-aching loneliness. And it hurts. It can hurt right to the core. On Friday's Mornings with Eric and Brigitte, speaker and Bible teacher, Becky Harling reminds us that because we were made for God and for community, relational isolation or brokenness is incredibly painful. But we don't have to live isolated and unconnected. Our souls were designed for more. Deeply rooted in Scripture and joined with reflection questions, Cultivating Deeper Connections in a Lonely World shows us how we can strengthen our relationships and experience deep connection.Donate to Moody Radio: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/morningshow/wrmbSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It is a Christian hymn that refers to the biblical concept of Immanuel (meaning "God with us") from Isaiah 8:8, essentially expressing a prayerful longing for the coming of Jesus Christ, both at his first birth and in anticipation of his second coming. Our special guest was Becky Harling, a speaker, mentor, author, and podcast host. She talked about the importance of loneliness and community during the holiday season, as highlighted in her latest book, "Cultivating Deeper Connections in a Lonely World."
