233- Why Can't We Stay Friends? | with guest Bryan Loritts

Posted by: WCSG & Hole In My Heart | Friday, January 3rd, 2025 (12:00am)

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.”
