You’re invited to the simplest church on Earth—the space between you and the person next to you.
Our world is suffering from an epidemic of loneliness and disconnection. We are desperately longing to find each other again. We want meaningful relationships and vibrant family lives.

There is ancient wisdom in our spiritual traditions, explored throughout this book, that can help heal our lonely, divided world one sacred moment of human connection at a time.

Matthew G. Mattson is a writer, speaker, social mystic, and spiritual leader dedicated to cultivating sacred human connection. As the founder of BETWEEN, an innovative and highly inclusive global faith community, Matt invites people to embrace curiosity, conversation, and shared moments of meaning. His work blends ancient wisdom with modern insights, helping people find the sacred in everyday encounters.
Drawing on his background in education and leadership, Matt has spent his career growing cause-based organizations and exploring the power of relationships—from co-founding Phired Up, The Social Excellence Project, and GrowMyGroup to his current ministry with BETWEEN (learn more at www.BETWEEN.church).
He lives in Colorado with his wife and daughters, where he finds glimpses of the divine while running mountain trails, sipping black coffee at local cafés, enjoying hazy beers at neighborhood breweries with friends, and savoring foods from around the world at his family dinner table.
