In this episode of Beyond Just Christian Podcast, Brenna discusses the five staples needed for a solid friendship. Oftentimes, it’s easy to ask ourselves, “How do I know this person is a good friend for me?” We all want those stable friends who we don’t have to second-guess but can depend on, and this episode is helpful in determining that.

By the end of this discussion, Brenna hopes that listeners can discern if the people in their lives are meant to be their friends.
