ABOUT THIS EPISODE
What is a "village," and how do we cultivate one in our own lives? In this episode, we'll take a look at the traits of a village, reflect on the loneliness epidemic in America, and how the Bible gives us guidance on overcoming that epidemic by providing real instructions for cultivating community. We'll also consider how we often view friendships in a scarcity mindset, but how we can build healthier ones with an abundance mindset.
We'll discuss:
- Historical traits of a "village"
- What's causing the loneliness epidemic and how the Bible guides us to overcome it
- Specific Bible verses on cultivating community
- Three principles and three red flags to keep in mind when discerning friendships
- Practical advice on how to make friends
If you've struggled with friendships or feeling like you don't know how to build community, this episode is for you!
