Are We Really Friends? The Road to Godly Friendships

With Rev. Dr. Patricia McLeod


Empty Nesters, most of the time, our friendships are a blessing. Sometimes, though, they are hard.

 

Listen in as Charlotte and the Rev. Dr. Patricia McLeod talk about friendships. God has a wonderful design for friendships. Satan does his best to destroy them.

 

This conversation covers these truths as well as:

  • How do we place false expectations on friends and have unrealistic presuppositions?
    • How do we have godly, wholesome, and authentic friendships?
      • What is God’s design for friendship?
        • How can we be the friend to others we’d like to have?
        •  

          It’s time to be liberated from the bondage of erroneous beliefs about friendship and the false expectations we impose on our friends.

           

          Let’s be the friend we want to have.

           

          Our best friend is Jesus. He’s always with us. His friends let Him down, He looked up and turned to His Father. We can too! Let’s lean in, look up and learn from Him.
