Summary
A sweet friendship refreshes the soul –and it’s better to have a friend nearby than a relative far away (Proverbs 27). So it’s no surprise that we feel hurt when our Christian friend lets us down, or confused when our loyalty isn’t returned. In this episode, Juli and her guest talk about how you can discern the difference between true friendship and relationships that are merely friend-ish.
