<div>There is an epidemic of loneliness in our culture today. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The U.S. Surgeon General says lacking social connection is more dangerous than smoking 15 cigarettes a day. More dangerous than obesity or air pollution. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Yet most of us live in separate lives - distant from the people who are literally right outside our front door. Our connection points - meals, BBQ's, parties, conversations over coffee - tend to happen behind closed doors. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We believe it's time to change that story. And it doesn't take a lot. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>All it takes is being yourself and bringing the good things of your life out into the open for others to see. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Instead of a party in your backyard, why not bring it to the front yard, where people can see and be invited in? 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This is what it means to Party in the Front. To overcome loneliness and create community right where you are. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We envision this book sparking a movement within the Church for people to battle back against the epidemic of loneliness by taking small but significant steps toward their neighbors. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Party in the Front is not just a book, it's an idea. It's a mission. It's a new story to tell about how possible and powerful community truly is. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Will you join us?
