Ep 27: Is It Wrong to Be Best Friends with a Nonbeliever?

Can Christians have close friendships with people who do not follow Jesus? What about your inner circle—should your best friends all be believers? And how do you love others well without letting their influence pull you away from your faith?

In this episode, we dig into some of the most common but rarely voiced questions about friendship, influence, and following Jesus. We look at the example of Christ—how He was a friend to sinners, yet chose to spend the majority of His time with those who were hungry to follow God.

We also talk about how to find godly, deep friendships when you do not have them, how to be the type of friend you want to have, and how to navigate relationships in a way that honors God. Whether you feel stuck between two worlds or are craving the kind of community that actually sharpens your faith, this conversation is for you.
