Your Question:

What's the best way to explain this to my friends?

Answer:

You're asking me to explain what makes a good friend. Well, I think it's someone who is genuine and true, someone who sticks by you through thick and thin. A good friend is like a brother, always there for you. They're not just there when things are going well, but also when you're struggling.

You know, I've had friends who have been like that, and it's amazing how much of a difference they can make in your life. They're the kind of friends who will listen to you, who will encourage you, and who will even correct you when you're wrong. They're not afraid to speak the truth, even if it's hard to hear. And they're not just friends when it's convenient for them, but when it's hard.

As a pastor, I've seen how important it is to surround yourself with good friends. And as a husband and father, I've learned that it's not just about having friends, but about being a good friend to those around me. It's about being someone who can be trusted, someone who will be there for others when they need it. That's what makes a good friend, and that's what I try to be for my friends and family.
