Happy new year! Let’s talk about friendships! Author and pastor Bryan Loritts joins us today to discuss: —Are friendships seasonal? (Should they be?) —How can we make and keep lifelong friends? —How should we think about boundaries with friends? | Highlights | “The reason so many of our relationships are superficial is we are too scared of taking the time and the risk to walk in truth with each other.” “There is a place to draw boundaries. I am just cautious against that being our reflex reaction the first time someone does something to us.” “Many people confuse transparency with authenticity. We have to be authentic with everyone but transparent with few.” “We are so busy so we don’t make time and margin for the longing of our souls for friends.” | QOTW | What is your go-to quotable movie? | Next Steps | His site: https://bryanloritts.com/ His book: https://www.amazon.com/Enduring-Friendship-Sticking-Together-Unfriending His IG: https://www.instagram.com/loritts/ Connect to O’Neill Asset Management: https://www.oneillassetmanagement.com Join the HIMH Pod FB group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/himhpodcast Follow Laurie on IG (where she is the most active): https://www.instagram.com/laurie_krieg/ WCSG Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/wcsgradio/

We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation.
