I am not going to lie. I want to be completely transparent with you when it comes to today’s post. I have a tendency to crawl back in my comfort zone and steer clear of friendships. I find it very difficult to let people into my life. I don’t want to get hurt or just feel plain awkward.
Well when I first learned about the (in)courage community from Dayspring and Craving Connection, my eyes were starting to open to a new principle that had always been there all along. I can never be unfriended. Jesus is the most faithful friend who ever lived, and He is my best friend.
My journey of learning to open up and connect with others continued with Lisa-Jo Baker’s newest book, Never Unfriended. She is the beautiful mind behind the (in)courage community that always believes the shortest distance between strangers is a shared awkward story.
I started reading and learning that first my friendship and relationship with Jesus Christ needed to be my main priority. Then as I grew closer to Him, I knew that everything else would work itself out and I didn’t have to worry. But the book has also taught me that I need to pray and seek God’s will for how I can be a friend toward other just as much as I expect to receive if not more.
I no longer have to worry about what will come of friendships or if I will end up hurt. Never Unfriended gives practical tips and personal stories to help us all make friends and be the kind of friend that lasts.
Not only is Lisa-Jo equipping you for friendships through this book, (in)courage also has this Conversation Starter Jar to get the stories rollin’. Inside the jar are 60 cards with totally different and random questions to really make you think and also get to know each other even better.
This jar is perfect for a road trip, girls weekend, date night with your spouse, Mother’s Day brunch, etc. As soon as the jar was delivered to my house, I started pulling out several and talking with my husband Mark. He loved the topics and ideas that really helped us learn more about each other. We can’t wait to take the jar with us on the road when we are just leisurely driving. Making that time a priority is HUGE with any relationship.
If you can relate to any of this, then please be sure to check out Never Unfriended and the (in)courage community from Dayspring. You will find your spirit will be lifted and encouraged.
Let me know in the comments below if you can relate to exactly what I’m saying. I would love to hear your story and find any encouragement from you too. And the greatest of these is love,
