“My friends see me every Sunday and throughout the week, and so they can tell when I’m off. I don’t tell them when I’m off. They come, they tell me when I’m off. They come, tell me when they sense I’m tired or exhausted or seem a little more irritable than usual. And that requires them to be in my space.”
“I’m much more afraid of isolation than I am of all the anecdotal or real risks that friendship within the church takes.”
