Rewarding friendships in our aging years are wonderful gifts from God. In this podcast we’ll explore this truth. I hope you will find it rewarding. Pass it on to others. Randy and I will follow with more friendship insights in future podcasts. When I think of rich friendships, my mind runs to a great quote from C.S. Lewis. Enjoy it.

In friendship, we think we have chosen our peers. In reality, a few years' difference in the dates of our births, a few more miles between certain houses, the choice of one university instead of another, the accident of a topic being raised or not raised at a first meeting---any of these chances might have kept us apart. But, for a Christian, there are, strictly speaking, no chances. A secret Master of Ceremonies and Divine Connector has been at work. Christ, who said to the disciples, "you have not chosen me, but I have chosen you". Jesus can truly say to every group of Christian friends, "you have not chosen one another but I have chosen you for one another."

Friendship is not a reward for our discrimination and good taste in finding one another out. It is the instrument by which God reveals to each of us the beauties of all the others.                                  C. S. Lewis. "Four Loves"
