Thinking Through Your Friendships– Dr. Charles Stanley

Friendships are a gift from God. And while they are His blessing to us, the most blessed friendship we can have is with our Lord. In this sermon, Dr. Stanley praises God for bringing friends into our lives and explains the importance of having relationships with others and with Christ.

Lord Jesus, is the only perfect friend to have and cherish forever. Because, he's perfect and is always there for you, no doubt and matter what, period!!!

When my husband and I got married we both said we felt uncomfortable with the persons we each had as best friends. We agreed to give up our best friend. It was hard in the beginning but it was the right thing to do. His friend was heavily into drugs, eventually taking his life. Mine was all around mean spirited. No matter how much I tried talking her about her ways she'd only get meaner. My husband and I are the very best of friends.

Jesus is my friend. I had to leave lots of friends behind when I was saved and stopped drinking alcohol. They didn't really seem to miss me at all!

I love when dr Stanley gets the giggles lol his sense of humor is on point but he’s very firm with the message at the same time. One of a kind for sure.

Spot on! I've had 5 friends in my 75yrs who all had one thing in common. They all have kept the fire burning in my heart for the Lord Jesus Christ. Their faith and commitment to God made them special and someone I could always go to when I needed help and understanding. They NEVER looked down on me or looked away in my time of need. Like wise, I always was there for them. A friendship that has God as the focus, is a friendship that

Jesus is my best friend, oh yes He is. He doesn't disappoint, He doesn't harm with His words, He's always there!!!

My best friend, my husband, just passed. I was lucky to have him, if for a little while. Thankfully I have a good, good dog. My supposed friends and even parents and siblings seem to have no love. I try but I don't get anything back from them in terms of real humanity. They all watch huge amounts of TV or still smoke weed, or are still involved in militant liberalism or new age thought. Thankfully I trust in Christ and I know I'll have the right kind of friends again soon. Some of my deepest connections are with strangers, and I'm trying to be more open to getting to know them. I'm still a little heartbroken. Maybe I've been judgemental in the past and made things about me. Jesus forgive me.

These remind me of my dog. She always smiles and is happy to see me. She is my best friend.

God truly is working in my life isn't he ?
This is a testimony,
I was born on February 28 2006, after spending only 5 months in my mother's womb, I was born prematurely and did not fully develop, the doctors said I wouldn't last 24 hours, but look ! I've lasted almost 14½ years, I am living proof of God's mercy, love and grace. We have all been loved before we knew it, and are still loved. It is wonderful is it not ??!!! 👏😭😂

The Lord sent me The Wellers, and they are a treasure . A true treasure, they also lead me to the Lord. I will never forget them. ❤

I have isolated myself from my old friends. Not because they do harm but I am jealous of them, I don’t have accomplishments, success or anything I could brag. In my friend group, there’s always the star. Every one of them has something, and I am ashamed of myself. I hid and ran away from them. I dont have a brave face to show them. God uses my isolation for his purpose. I grew relationship with Him. My perspective has changed, my desires are no longer what they are used to, what I value is now different and my now friends, they may be far fewer but their faith in God is immense. Im happy and growing in God with them. Even though I am broken, they welcome me.

What I’ve always loved about pastor Stanley is his ability to make you feel like a child again hearing God’s word. His audience many of whom who are older enjoy his lessons well into old age and it’s a blessing to see the young ones there all learning on the same level the same lessons. Thank you Jesus, the best teacher. 🌸🙏🏽

THANK YOU JESUS CHRIST! OUR LORD GOD ALMIGHTY! OUR SAVIOUR! AMEN.❤❤❤

I have no friend like this except Jesus and my husband.
God blessing.

Am always on a look out for Sermon that is Bible based, I dont care what denomination the Pastor belongs as long as his teaching is in tune with God's principles. Pastor Stanley anchors his sermons on God's words and I am greatly blessed that I have been sharing links to my friends.
This is the fourth sermon of his that I've listened and I thank the Holy Spirit for leading me to this video . I especially like the sermon Waiting on God and taking control of our thoughts. Really, if we fill our minds with God's words everyday it is heavenly life.
Thank you In Touch Ministries for sharing these Bible based sermons. Pastor Stanley is used by the Holy Spirit to touch lives!
