Ep. 85 - Cultivating Friendship, Part 2: The Seeds of Biblical Friendship with Jon Pratt & Greg Deckert
<p>In this episode, we sit down again with Dr. Jon Pratt and Greg Deckert, who spent most of their adult years in different churches: Jon on staff at Eden Baptist in Burnsville for seventeen years, and Greg at Fourth Baptist, building friendships from scratch in each church.</p><p>Jon and Greg discuss how friendships are actually built within a local church. We cover the difference between joining a small group and making a friend, why pastors need friends in their own congregations, and what to do if you are new somewhere and feel like you do not know anyone.</p>
