Be more interested than interesting! How would your approach to friendship change, if you went in to a conversation showing love and care by asking questions rather than focusing on what you’re going to say?! Jesus modelled friendship so beautifully for us because he wanted us to understand that we are not meant for loneliness. If you’re looking to get connected and develop real friendships, we’d love to help you do that. Send us a DM anytime, and let’s chat! Catch up on this weekend’s message: https://www.faccalgary.com/watch/past-services (fb)
