Episode: Friendly But Not Friends
Description: It has become very popular within church culture to promote an atmosphere of friendliness. From parking lot attendants to door greeters to the First Impressions team, we do everything we can to let people know we are “the friendliest church in town.” But are we missing something? Is it possible that we have mastered the art of being friendly without actually being friends? In today’s episode, we discuss why just being friendly falls well short of the standard Jesus set when it comes to how we should approach relationships with those all around us.
