Purposeful Relationships: Are You Being Sharpened? ✨
🛠️ "As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another." (Proverbs 27:17)
What if the relationships in your life weren’t just casual, but intentional—designed to help you grow, deepen your faith, and walk in purpose? Today, we’re diving into what it means to build and sustain purposeful relationships that challenge, encourage, and refine us into who God created us to be.
In This Episode, We Cover:
✅ The difference between casual friendships and purposeful relationships
✅ Why God designed us for community that refines and strengthens us
✅ Practical ways to invest in friendships that point you toward God
✅ How to become a sharpening force in someone else’s life
Reflection Questions 🤔
1️⃣ Who are the people in my life that encourage my faith and challenge me to grow?
