  • #178 Rambling with Grace Valentine - The Better Friend
    Mar 10 2025

    Our beloved Grace Valentine is back with a brand new book "The Better Friend: 12 Truths to Shift from Shallow and One-Sided Connections to Vibrant Friendships." Grace helps us rethink the way we connect with others and shares her wise and relatable insight on belonging, comparison, gossip, and the scriptures that equip us to be a better friend. We talk about the different types of friends and why we need each of them. Grace reminds us we are not alone as we pursue friendships especially when God designed us for community.

    In her own beautiful words "...I am praying that as you read these words, you will find peace from Jesus, unreasonable love, confidence to not give up, and friendships that make you better. Better is coming when you do life with the Giver of Life." Go buy her book!! It's a beautiful read for all of us, but we especially recommend it for your high school and college students.
