Spiritual Companionship - Leesburg Grace Teachings

What this episode covers

Loneliness is dangerous and deadly. It hurts our bodies and distorts our souls. In this issue, I talk about the need for spiritual friends, four kinds of relationships in the New Testament, the role of spiritual companionship in our discipleship to Jesus. I draw upon insights from the Surgeon General's report on the Loneliness Epidemic, Michael Wilkins's biblical theology of discipleship, and Jesus's discipleship model in the gospels. (My apologies for the popping sound; I'm toying with a new microphone.)
