True Friends

The definition of friend has been twisted over the last few decades.

True Friends

Can we remember what it means to be a true friend?

True Friends

From an early age, we need to consistently remind our kids what makes a good friend. Proverbs 18:24 says, “A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.” Social media can give our kids many companions which they call friends, but do they really know what a friend is? Or how to choose one?

It is okay to help your kids choose their friends, but it may be even more important to help them define what a true friend is in the first place. It is not someone who always agrees with them or likes them on social media.

"When I met the kids (at SHA), and saw the glow of transformation on their faces, it spoke to me that Shepherd's Hill Academy was more than 'Just what the doctor ordered.' It is a holistic, spiritual and therapeutic approach to healing that provides an atmosphere for learning and a proving ground for the uncompromising time-tested truths of scripture." - John Rosemond, American Columnist
