Real talk — friendships in the church aren’t always easy. Between expectations, accountability, and learning to love people who don’t always think or act like us, Christian friendships can get messy.

In this episode, we talk about why following Jesus in community can stretch you, how to handle conflict with grace, and why the struggle is actually a sign of growth. From laughter to honesty, we dive into what makes godly friendships not just hard… but holy.

Key Verses:

  • Proverbs 27:17 – “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.”

  • John 13:35 – “By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”

  • Ecclesiastes 4:9–10 – “Two are better than one… If either of them falls down, one can help the other up.”
