Christian Friendship

September 22, 2021

It’s good to have a friend. But did you know that friendship is not just fun and enjoyable, it’s also an important part of your Christian life and will help you develop in Christ? All the more reason to regret that friendship has become increasingly difficult in today’s world. Modern society creates lives that are closed off and untrusting of others. However, we have a God who values laying down one’s life for one’s friends, and He’ll use godly relationships for a wonderful purpose: our growth in holiness.

This truth is so opposed to what the world teaches that we often struggle to accept it. And that’s nothing new; even the apostle Paul battled this issue. His famous “thorn in the side” kept him weak, but God’s refusal to remove it brought Paul to his knees—and into Christ’s infinitely greater strength.

Confessing our sins is a powerful—and essential—part of Christian life. Confession should ease our souls, restore intimacy with God, and set us on the road to victory over stubborn sins. So why is it common for Christians to confess the same transgressions over and over? Why don’t we have more success at leaving our faults behind, once we’ve brought them to God?

About Dr. Charles Stanley

Dr. Charles Stanley

September 25, 1932 – April 18, 2023

Dr. Charles F. Stanley was the senior pastor of First Baptist Church Atlanta for more than fifty years.

Known to audiences around the world through his wide-reaching TV and radio broadcasts, Stanley modeled his 65 years of ministry after the apostle Paul’s message in Acts 20:24: “Life is worth nothing unless I use it for doing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus—the work of telling others the Good News about God’s mighty kindness and love.”
