About this audiobook
In this age of limitless digital connections, we are somehow lonelier than ever. This isn't just bad news--it's dangerous news. Loneliness puts us at greater health risk than smoking or obesity, but we would sooner label ourselves overweight than admit we are lonely. It is a secret that is killing us. Contrary to all our efforts, the answer is not found in more connections, but deeper ones that mirror God himself as the originator of friendship and the original Friend. The Art of Friendship walks with you into a greater understanding of how God has equipped you to be a friend and to have meaningful friendships. With step-by-step guidance, you will begin to strategize how to fulfill your divine calling as a friend. And through God's Word, as you come to understand the depth and width and breadth of God as Friend, you will discover that the spiritual discipline of friendship is both life-changing and life-giving.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Beautifully written and wonderfully Biblical. Some excellent ideas on not just how to grow Godly friendships but why we should invest in our sisters in Christ. This book describes friendship as a spiritual discipline, something to consciously work on in our walk with God and toward who He wants us to be in this life.
