Is all our texting, DMing and emailing bringing us closer to people or creating barriers to authentic communication?
Even if you forget everything else, remember this: You have a gift to give others in the way you interact with them and listen to them.
We should often examine our own thinking: Where are we accepting a false ideal? Where are we passing judgments when we should be offering grace?
It’s the age-old question in the church: Where and when does friendship turn into romance, and how can we keep them divided?
In friendship there’s vulnerability, depravity and, through it all, acceptance. A marriage covenant isn’t the only relationship that can model the gospel.
Despite therapy and self-awareness and self-help books, people don’t make it out of awkwardness alone — they need community.
There is something to be said for mystique and mystery. So let’s be bold and brave but also cautious. Let’s be honest but patient. Let’s be clear but wise.
My view on blogging resembles classic marriage advice that’s given: It’s better not to have a (blog) than to have a (blog) and wish you didn’t have one.
As much as I love a quiet night at home with Netflix, my heart grows bitter and weary without life-giving friendships.
