What if our friendships are way lower than Jesus’ expectations? In this talk, we walk through Mark 2 and the four friends who tore open a roof to get a paralyzed man to Christ. Real friendship is intentional, vulnerable, and spiritually focused. It notices the “mat” in each other’s lives, carries it with compassion, and does whatever it takes to bring one another to Jesus for healing and holiness. We also unpack Sirach 6 on testing and treasuring a faithful friend.
