Pick up the phone. Be the shoulder. Remember the good times. Endure the bad. There’s always a need to find - and to be - a good friend. Jesus models the way. Tune in to our CCV Online church experience streaming from Phoenix, Arizona, and hear from CCV's Senior Pastor, Ashley Wooldridge, as he explores how the people someone spends the most time with directly influence their direction in life. Friendships can either lift a person toward growth or quietly pull them off course. There are three types of friends everyone needs: those who call out their potential, those who strengthen them during difficult seasons, and those who care enough to speak hard truths. Meaningful friendships aren’t just enjoyable… they shape character, decisions, and long-term well-being!
