Ep 12: Godly Friendship: How to Build Healthy, Lasting Friendships | Christian Friendship

Friendship is one of God's sweetest gifts. The right friends can laugh with us, walk through the hard seasons with us, pray with us, and lovingly remind us of who God has called us to be. They can see things we may not see in ourselves and, when needed, gently point us back to truth. In this episode of The Wisdom Workshop, Dr. Stephanie Oliver sits down with one of her dear friends, therapist Keisha Diodato, for a heartfelt conversation about godly friendship and what it really looks like to do life together. Stephanie and Keisha share from their own friendship and talk about the things that help relationships grow deeper and stronger, accountability, honesty, prayer, humility, and simply being willing to show up for one another. They talk about the gift of having a friend who loves you enough to tell you what you need to hear, not just what you want to hear. They also get real about the harder parts of friendship, conflict, disappointment, offense, forgiveness, and boundaries. What do we do when a friendship becomes difficult? When do we keep working through it, and when might God be leading us into a different season? Through Scripture, personal stories, and wisdom from their own friendship, Stephanie and Keisha encourage us to seek God in every relationship and trust Him with the friendships He has placed in our lives.
