How to Build Strong Friendships | Leo Bigger & Dave Kull

2026/04/12 | Dave Kull

In this sermon Dave Kull shows how to build strong friendships by rooting them in Christ, honest vulnerability, and practical accountability. Drawing on Ecclesiastes 4:9 (“Two are better than one”) and Proverbs 27:6, he urges you to lay expectations at the cross, stop expecting mind-reading, and rely on God’s grace to heal relational wounds.

Practical takeaway: be willing to express your needs clearly, invite correction and protection from trusted friends, prioritize Christian accountability (Eccl. 4:11–12), and support one another through hard seasons with prayer and concrete help.

Reflection/action: examine your closest relationships—are you receiving and giving honest, grace-filled accountability? Bring your hopes, hurts, and expectations to Jesus, then take one brave step to speak truth and offer support to a friend today.
