Welcome to Powerless Furnace!
In this part 2, we continue to dive into one of the most common yet misunderstood struggles of our time: Loneliness and the Fight for Real Intimacy. Whether you're single, married, or somewhere in between, chances are you've felt disconnected at some point—emotionally, spiritually, or even physically. Today, we’re unpacking what loneliness really is, how the world tries (and often fails) to address it, and what God says about finding true, lasting connection.

We explore the myths society tells us—like sexual intimacy being the solution—and contrast them with the biblical vision of deep, spiritual, and emotional closeness. From the four types of love in Scripture to real stories of isolation and healing, this episode invites you into an honest and transformative conversation about what it means to be known, loved, and connected.
