As the community manager at the website incourage.me since 2010, Lisa-Jo Baker has had the chance to engage hundreds of conversations with women about friendship. Shes learned that no one can make us quite as unsure about ourselves as another woman. And nothing can wound as deeply as unkind words from a friend. While we are all hungry for friendship, its the fear of feeling awkward and being rejected, left out, or hurt (again) that often keep us from connecting. But what if we knew we could never be unfriended? Would we risk friendship then? Starting with that guarantee from the most faithful friend who ever livedJesusthis book is a step-by-step guide to friendships you can trust. It answers the questions that lurk under the surface of every friendshipWhat are we afraid of? What cant we change? What can we change? And where do we start?with personal stories and practical tips to help you make the friends, and be the friend, that lasts.

In a time where we can be "unfriended" with a click of a button, how do we foster deep and meaningful relationships? Baker tried to answer this question with honesty and openness using personal anecdotes, her blog readers' experiences, and Biblical passages. Written for Christian women, this book is filled with wisdom. If friendship is something that has been on your heart lately, pick up this book. #christian #nonfiction

So much truth in one paragraph! 😂😅 It's a shy introvert's nightmare...

CocoReads I know everyone at mine and I still dread this time. 7y
underthebelljar @CocoReads I thought it might be better if you knew everyone! It just feels awkward no matter what I guess. 7y
CocoReads @BookishJess I think so. Plus I'm good with a hi how ya doin? Not so great with hugs from anyone other than family. Even then, limited contact! 7y
Laura317 It's the worst part of worship time for me! It's always awkward. Wish we didn't do it. I've been know to enter the sanctuary right after that. 😉 7y
underthebelljar @CocoReads Yeah I'm similar with hugs and personal space. @Laura317 Haha! Good idea 😉 7y

Just starting and I like that Baker is already acknowledging that we might be in different places and our needs might be different. She even suggests that you jump to part two and part three depending on where you are in life.

Just picked up the mail with my boys and this lovely book just arrived. Excited to dive in after I read some awesome quotes on Instagram during its release week.
