Walking With Lions: How to Find True Courage and Enduring Strength Through God-Honoring Relationships

by Jonathan Wiggins

In at least one way, we're not that Every person on the planet longs to be fully known and deeply loved -- both, not one or the other. To be known but not loved makes us feel terribly exposed; to be loved but not known is superficial and unfulfilling. In this book, Jonathan Wiggins explains the heart of God for rich, strong, healing relationships. He teaches from a compelling biblical perspective, and each chapter is full of illustrative stories and practical suggestions. And Jonathan writes from experience. He has developed this kind of relationship on his staff team. They call themselves "lions" because they've found the courage to be honest and supportive as they work together to do great things for God's kingdom. The concepts in this book apply to staff teams, small groups, families, and friends. If you believe life change happens in relationships, this book is for you.

[Janelle Zimmerman · Rating 4 out of 5]

A book that systemizes the basics of deep friendship sounds like it could be pretentious and possibly boring. This one isn't.
(I disagree strongly with one point: I don't believe deep disclosure only needs to happen 1:1, "group therapy" is incredibly helpful.) If you read this AND do the process, your life will change. For the good.
