Real People Real Talk

Today we go THERE as we discuss Racial Reconciliation, "White Privilege", "Cancel Culture", the "Blue Flu" and Social Media "Do's & Don'ts" during this tense time in our nation. We are not here to straddle the fence but we are here to be bridge builders, and as the body of Christ we need to be willing & intentional in having the hard and awkward but necessary conversations.

Life isn't meant to be lived alone. We need other people in our lives, people we can count on, people we can call, people that will pray for us, encourage us, and even correct us. So today we invite you into this conversation about Friendship. Arielle Calcote, Cierra Bailey, & Janell Harville, have been friends since college, over 10 years ago. Today, they share about the Joys & Struggles of Friendship.

Facebook changed the way we view & define the word "Friend" so here are the questions that we are answering today: 1) What does it mean to really be a "friend" 2) Why friendship & community matters? 3) How to go from surviving to thriving as it relates to Friendship & Community?
Fav Quotes

• "Authentic Friendship is risky but it's worth it"
• "You have the right to delete people out of your life that mean you no good"

Scripture that anchored the conversation:

• Proverbs 12:26 The righteous choose their friends carefully, but the way of the wicked leads them astray.
• Proverbs 18:24 One who has unreliable friends soon comes to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.
• 1 Corinthians 15:33 Do not be deceived: "Bad company ruins good morals."
