Restoration Home with Jennifer Pepito The Importance of Friendship with Kristen Strong
When we're little, friendships are built around being in the same place together, whether through school, church, or family gatherings. However, as we get older, friendships become increasingly more important and, sometimes, harder to build. Friendships, and the community built around them, are a cornerstone of both our Christian faith, well-being, and doing life well. So, how do we build great friendships, steward the ones we have, and remain resilient and tender through the ups and downs of community?
