Among Friends

Many people wonder why relationships in the church aren't as warm and sincere as those depicted on the popular TV show "Cheers". Why is genuine friendship so hard to find among God's people? "We've lost our sense of family", say James Hinkle and Tim Woodroof, authors of Among Friends. In a world full of loneliness, isolation, and alienation, church must offer an alternative rather than more of the same. The greatest danger facing the local church today is neither doctrinal nor moral, but relational." The authors address the need for closer relationships in the church, and provide practical guidelines, discussion materials, and provocative insights for establishing a sense of community.
