[Ep 5] Discerning How to Help a Grieving Friend

It’s so important for us to grow in discernment because we need God’s help when it comes to encouraging and caring for those around us. It’s not a one-size-fits-all answer. Our needs are different. Our personalities are different. Our situations are different. What would be encouraging for one person might be humiliating for another.

And so we come to God with a posture of openness for what would be most meaningful to our friend, and not just what is most convenient for us.

In future episodes, we’ll talk more about how to encourage others when we have limited time and resources. But today, we’re going to explore some things we can do to discern God’s guidance when it comes to reaching out to a certain friend.

Let’s encourage one another…
