10/28/20 • Real Friends • 3 • When Friendships End

In the third week of our series on friendship called Real Friends, we are talking about something difficult... The ending of friendships. When we find ourselves in a moment where we know a friendship needs to end, how do we handle it? God's Word has some important insights for us to learn from!

Scripture: Acts 16:36-41, 1 Corinthians 9:6, 2 Timothy 4:11
Main Point: You can be friendly without being friends but keep Jesus as your end
