The biggest problem facing humanity is a lack of intimacy - the relational intimacy we were created to need and enjoy in the very beginning. This intimacy can be best understood as an experience of oneness with our Creator God, with ourselves, with others, and with God''s creation.
Life is often unhappy and frustrating because we lack this true intimacy in one (or more) of these 4 key contexts, and then go searching for it in wrong relationships and places where it was not meant to be found. Among many other things, our culture''s religious consumerism, identity politics, porn addiction and mental health crisis can be traced back to the intimacy deficit we are all experiencing in different ways today.
