211. Your Friends Determine Your Direction and Future

Let's Parent on Purpose: Christian Marriage, Parenting, and Discipleship - A podcast by Jay Holland and Christian Parenting

In the first episode of my new series on Parenting Challenges, I address the truth that “Our friends determine the direction and quality of our lives”. In a unique episode designed for parents to listen to with their children, we discuss how to identify toxic relationships, represented by the acronym MAD GAS (Manipulator, Addict, Deceiver, Gossip, Arguer, and Slug). We then determine the character qualities of a JET PACK friendship (Joyful, Encourager, Trustworthy, Peacemaker, Active, Christ Centered, and Kingdom Minded).   Resources Mentioned:   Sponsor Affiliate: The Hopegivers Stories of Hope Podcast
