Friendship is one of the most influential areas of life, but it's rarely treated like a stewardship assignment. The people around you shape your thinking, your habits, your convictions, and sometimes even your direction in life. In this episode, we're talking about what it actually looks like to steward your friendships well, according to scripture.

We cover:

• Why Proverbs 27:17 ("iron sharpens iron") isn't just a cute quote
• How to identify relationships that build you up vs. drain you dry
• What being a faithful friend in truth and grace actually looks like
• Why discernment about who gets access to your inner life is biblical, not arrogant
• Friendship as mutual stewardship, and why refusing to share your burdens is actually going against the Word

Plus reflection questions throughout to help you actually apply this to your real relationships.
