About this listen

Do you have people in your life who really see you—who speak truth, show up, and call out the best in you? In this episode of the Light + Life Podcast, Liza and Pastor Tim explore the importance of Christ-centered friendship, spiritual community, and the courage it takes to share your needs.

We weren’t made to go it alone. Whether you're new in town, feeling disconnected, or just longing for deeper relationships, this conversation will inspire you to seek out the kind of friends who will walk with you, pray with you, and help you grow in faith.

Together they explore:

  • The difference between solitude and loneliness
  • What to look for in spiritually supportive friends
  • How to deepen friendships with vulnerability
  • Why sharing needs is one of the most life-changing practices
  • How God forms us through community and accountability
  • Why iron really does sharpen iron—and how to live that out
  • The power of a borrowed rake and a backyard cat funeral

You’ll also hear stories of trust, healing, neighborly love, and the kind of spiritual friendships that last through every season of life.

📍This week’s invitation:
✅ Borrow something from a neighbor
✅ Share a real need with someone close to you
✅ Pursue one relationship more intentionally
✅ Pray for God to grow your community and show you who to encourage

🧡 You were made to be known, loved, and supported. And there’s Light + Life in the friendships God gives.
