These days, friendships dissolve at the speed of a tweet. Cancel culture is real, and betrayal is often public. But are we the kind of friends we'd want in our corner when we are in a crisis?
Looking at real-life examples of friendships tested in the spotlight – Jessica Mulroney & Meghan Markle, Justin Baldoni & Blake Lively – and with guidance from the Word of God, we see what true friendship looks like and ask ourselves the question: Are we a true friend or a fair-weather friend?
If you are a woman, who has ever yearned for a true friend, this episode is for you.
