There is something about being in a crowd. Being together. The value of standing next to someone else, even a stranger, in a crowd of strangers, all watching the same thing and doing the same thing, it’s magnetic. We’re just wired that way.

The Bible says that we were created in the image of God. And God is three, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We are created in the image of community. All real living is meeting.
