You – Have to have three kinds of friends.

Close friends - speak into your life say over night at their house

Recess Friends - Play with and spend time hanging out

Do you Want to be Friends - People that don’t know Jesus or you need to get to know.

We – are all friends with Jesus and our job is to share our friendship with Jesus with others in our lives. Think about how you personally have been sharing Jesus in your friendships.

PRAYER - Jesus help me make my friendships more about you.
