Episode 233: Why Can’t We Stay Friends? | Bryan Loritts
Hole In My Heart Podcast
Friday, January 3, 2025 - 42 minutes
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.”
