Synopsis

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.

A few weeks ago, I was sitting with a group of friends and we were discussing friendships. And then I read this book and feel like it was very helpful. I want to be a good friend, but sometimes I get wrapped up in my own world and friendship gets set aside or becomes very me-focused. "Any place you......more

Note: I received a copy of The Art of Friendship from the publisher in return for my honest opinion. The Art of Friendship is one of those books that had me crying at times. Making friends was never easy for me due to a number of factors including being very shy. I also had the mistaken impression t......more
