Book Synopsis True Friendship by : John Cuddeback, Ph.D.
Download or read book True Friendship written by John Cuddeback, Ph.D. and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2021-01-22 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We all want true friends. But how many of us really know what friendship is, or where to find it? In these pages, philosopher John Cuddeback weaves together the timeless wisdom of Scripture, of the ancient Greeks, and the saints to map out the steep and beautiful path to man's greatest joy—true friendship. Following Aristotle's teachings on the unbreakable connection between happiness and virtuous living, Cuddeback sees friendship at the very center of the human drama. Although there are different kinds of friendship, the deepest kind can only be achieved through a life of virtue, and this is where the human person comes most fully alive. True Friendship offers simple yet rich advice on how to tap into this reality in our own lives. Such friendship demands much of us, but it gives us even more, as individuals and as a society. Both the Old and New Testaments place a premium on friendship. In the Christian vision, the philosophers' insights attain a broader supernatural perspective. Christ transforms human friendship and expands it. With help from the writings of Saints Thomas and Aelred, Cuddeback discovers what lies at the heart of the Christian life—the wondrous and unsurpassable reality of friendship with God in Jesus, the Divine Friend, who is at work in all our authentic friendships.

Book Synopsis Genuine Friendship by : Philip D. Halfacre
Download or read book Genuine Friendship written by Philip D. Halfacre and published by Midwest Theological Forum. This book was released on 2020-06-26 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One measure of happiness is the quality of one's personal relationships. No one relates perfectly, and even those who relate well can see from time to time they need to improve. In this book, Rev. Msgr. Philip D. Halfacre offers insights to help the reader to do precisely that. In all interpersonal relationships—especially in the family—there is an environment or a culture. Ideally, a culture of love is created—one wherein each person has the experience of being loved, acceptance, and forgiveness. Friendship entails more than warm feelings and personal sharing; sustaining such relationships and fulfilling the expectations that occur naturally requires real strength of character, especially to persevere through the years.

Download or read book Friend-ish written by Kelly Needham and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2019-08-27 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For so many of us, our friends are like family members--we lean on them through our highest highs and our lowest lows--but sometimes those friendships don't turn out quite as we hoped. Bible teacher Kelly Needham debunks our world's constricted, narrow view of friendship and casts a richer, more life-giving, biblical vision for friendship. In Friend-ish, Kelly Needham reminds us that we were called to more than halfhearted friendships and lukewarm connections. We need something more stable, secure, and sacred. We were designed for real friendship--but the difficult truth is that too many of us are settling for less. Kelly deconstructs what Scripture says about the gift of friendship and takes a closer look at the distorted view that most of us have instead. As she shares the lessons she's learned from experience, Kelly paints her own glorious vision of what Christian friendship could look like. With hard-fought wisdom, a clear view of Scripture, and a been-there perspective, Friend-ish teaches us how to: Recognize symptoms of idolatry and toxic dependency Boldly ask for what we need from our community of friends Understand and address the problems that arise in friendship--from neediness to discord Recognize when it's time to end an unhealthy friendship Reorient toward the purposeful, loving relationships we all crave that ultimately bring us closer to God Find the friends you need and start to become that friend for others Join Kelly as she challenges you to view your chosen family in a new light, gain a vision of friendship according to Jesus, and finally enjoy friendships as God intended.

Book Synopsis How to Be a Friend by : Marcus Tullius Cicero
Download or read book How to Be a Friend written by Marcus Tullius Cicero and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2018-10-09 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A splendid new translation of one of the greatest books on friendship ever written In a world where social media, online relationships, and relentless self-absorption threaten the very idea of deep and lasting friendships, the search for true friends is more important than ever. In this short book, which is one of the greatest ever written on the subject, the famous Roman politician and philosopher Cicero offers a compelling guide to finding, keeping, and appreciating friends. With wit and wisdom, Cicero shows us not only how to build friendships but also why they must be a key part of our lives. For, as Cicero says, life without friends is not worth living. Filled with timeless advice and insights, Cicero’s heartfelt and moving classic—written in 44 BC and originally titled De Amicitia—has inspired readers for more than two thousand years, from St. Augustine and Dante to Thomas Jefferson and John Adams. Presented here in a lively new translation with the original Latin on facing pages and an inviting introduction, How to Be a Friend explores how to choose the right friends, how to avoid the pitfalls of friendship, and how to live with friends in good times and bad. Cicero also praises what he sees as the deepest kind of friendship—one in which two people find in each other “another self” or a kindred soul. An honest and eloquent guide to finding and treasuring true friends, How to Be a Friend speaks as powerfully today as when it was first written.

Book Synopsis Deep Friendship by : Francisco Ugarte
Download or read book Deep Friendship written by Francisco Ugarte and published by Scepter Publishers. This book was released on 2017-01-01 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The value of a true friend seems a unanimous declaration: a friend is “someone who knows all about you and still loves you” (Elbert Hubbard) and “the most precious of all possessions” (La Rochefoucauld); friendship is “a single soul dwelling in two bodies” (Aristotle), “the only cement that will ever hold the world together” (Woodrow Wilson). And yet, the statement that gets at the heart of Ugarte’s book Deep Friendship belongs to Plutarch, who says: “A constant friend is a thing rare and hard to find.” This is especially true in today’s world, in which we are constantly surrounded by people, but seldom experience deep friendship. The concept and value of friendship has become, more than ever, a rare treasure. What seems a simple task—that of finding a true friend who cares, respects, and deeply appreciates you—can be harder than expected. In his book, Ugarte shares not only how to find a good friend, but how to be one. These attributes of true friendship lead to great benefits, including a more genuine happiness and a greater union with God.

Book excerpt: As I drove away doing ninety to nothing, tears strolled down my face. I began to wonder what just happened and why. Flashing lights passed. Red and blue was all I could see. Frantically I stared into space as I drove to free myself from all the horror I had just left behind. Somebody's son, father, and brother and even somebody's daughter and mother. Time had finally caught up with me, my husband, and my best friend. The blood on my hands and clothing tells it all. A broken heart had finally shattered into pieces. Causing my mind to react to the hurt that drenched from my heart. Perhaps my greatest fears in life at this moment is, that of rejection, or of my husband's and friend's unfaithfulness to me. These fears may perhaps have tormented me into action of a murderer. But, I really can't see that, because did I just perform the acts of a murder? All I can do now is go into a preservation to keep myself from being more vulnerable and hurt. But ultimately, the results of today may have already destructed so many friendships. In matters of seconds and minutes. Now, I've left and abandoned the friendships I thought were true. To be honest, they may have tormented me unknowingly. But now, it's known and now there is nothing to fear but fear itself. There may be no more true friendships left for us. The only thing left is the reckon balls of pain that has just destructed the hearts in many lives. These lives consist of blended families joined together by matrimony and much more. No matter how we view the destruction, our friendships will never be the same. Only the lingering thoughts of what use to be true friendships. I can only imagine if I would have left these relationships years ago. What would life be like now? But running away doesn't really cure any pain. Especially, when your life isn't just destructed by friendships. But, it has left you with a point of no return.
