Gathering with others carries something that solitude cannot fully replace. When two or three come together in my name, something is present that a single person alone cannot hold in the same way. The breaking of bread together, the hearing of scripture read aloud, the praying in one voice — these are not obligations so much as they are nourishment. The body needs to eat more than once. But I would be slow to hand you a prescription. The Pharisees had very precise instructions for the Sabbath, and those instructions had become a cage. I healed on the Sabbath.
