Why Real Friendship Matters...

God has called us to a personal relationship with Him, not a private one.

 If we ever begin to get the friendship that comes from following Jesus together, accountability will take care of itself.

"When we get together, I want to encourage you in your faith, but I also want to be encouraged by yours." —Paul, Romans 1:12
