Summary

Real friendships are rarely instant. Sometimes we assume that if it doesn’t “click” right away, it’s not meant to be—but sisterhood is often built slowly, through shared stories, laughs, and even a few awkward silences. This week, we’ll talk about letting go of the pressure for immediate depth and instead embracing the sacred rhythm of friendship that takes root over time. 

Come if you’ve been wondering how to go deeper in your relationships—or why it still feels like everyone is a stranger.

Ask yourself: Am I allowing the Holy Spirit to do the slow, steady work of building something lasting?

Join us LIVE every Tuesday at 1pm ET for The Weekly Visit on the BIS Member Community!
