Mark Driscoll
Patheos
Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.
Pray for your friend every day and let them know you are praying.
Ask your friend how you can be a better friend.
Check in regularly to see how your friend is doing.
Send encouraging Scriptures to your friend in seasons when they are struggling.
Quickly overlook minor offenses, and fully forgive bigger offenses.
Learn to laugh at yourself and lighten up.
Be generous, don’t be greedy.
Say thank you for things you appreciate.
Listen.
