One of the things I'm passionate about is community! I believe that friendship was God's idea! I got to hang out with some friends this week in Birmingham, AL and we started a really great conversation about the challenges of friendship for Christian women. I decided to record some of our thoughts and ask my community to chime in. So... Let me know your thoughts. Let's start a conversation! Tag me and use the hashtag: #beafriend
