Exploring the Continent of Loneliness

The experience of loneliness is one many of us experience while going about life, and an experience even Jesus went through very painfully while on the cross. And though loneliness is a very painful thing to experience, Dr. James Houston shares about how Jesus has journeyed this continent of loneliness before we were even born, and that He is always with us, and comes to our side every time we open Scripture, even if we cannot feel, see, or perceive it.
