The Friendship Episode! Chatting All Things Making New Friends, Nurturing Lifelong Friendships, and Healing After Friendship Hurt with Elizabeth Laing Thompson

Friendship is TOUGH! There, I said it. Today on the podcast, Elizabeth Laing Thompson is joining us to talk through all the questions we’ve all been asking about friendship - how to make new friends, how to nurture lifelong friendships, and what to do when friendships fall apart. In Elizabeth’s brand new book When a Friendship Falls Apart, she comes alongside readers as they process their struggling friendships—the faltering, the fractured, and the failed. Blending personal story, biblical examples, and faith-filled wisdom, each page explores questions like the following: How do we guard against the poison of bitterness so we can process the hurt and move forward? When and how do we seek reconciliation? What does forgiveness look like? How do we know when it’s time to leave a friendship behind? How do we open up again and entrust our wounded hearts to new friendships? If you find yourself in the midst of a friendship that’s falling apart, or you’re grappling with past hurts and regrets, I hope you enjoy this podcast episode and I encourage you to grab a copy of Elizabeth’s new book, When a Friendship Falls Apart.   Grab When a Friendship Falls Apart Connect with Elizabeth Join the free Joy Filled Community Connect with Jenna on Instagram Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The early years of motherhood are hard, but they’re so so good. I’m determined to give these ‘good old days’ everything I’ve got and I’m bringing you along with me. We’ll host honest conversations on faith, motherhood, homemaking, and everything in between. My prayer is that you leave encouraged in Christ, equipped to carry the weight of motherhood with joy, and reminded of the truth that God has given you everything you need to steward your arrows well.
