e@ Ask appropriate ques
tions which reflect interest
and

than the rule to have people
remain in one location for
more than 10 years.

Reasons for mobility vary.
Some are within our control,
while others are outside the
realm of our choosing. At
times it may be a promotion
involving moving into
another community.

On the other hand, it may
be due to a slow down of pro-
duction, resulting in layoffs.
Opportunities for work may
arise in another community,
another province or even in
another country. So we are
on the move again.

The difficulties involved in
moving are increased when
you are married and have a
family

In my moves as a pastor,
our family always viewed the
next church as a challenge to
see opportunities of God at
work in us and through us.
However, it was of greater
difficulty for our children
who were uprooted from the
familiarity of community,
school, church, recreational
activities and most of all,
from friends.

Some friendships develop
and become very intimate;
others are a close friendship,
more are on the casual friend-
sftp level, while there may
be a host of those who are on
the acquaintance level.

“In order to have friends
one must show oneself
friendly.” From experience
this is a reality. Often, when

seeking friends,

moving in need to take the
initiative. Those living there
have already established
their circle of friends on
various levels and those
moving in may be an in
trusion on friendships al
ready developed.

In our moving as a pastor
and family, we have always
had a natural door open to us
through the calling into a
church. However, we still
have to deal with levels of
friendship which need to be
developed.

The following has been a
help in understanding the
levels of friendship available
to us and in developing
friendships. These notes
come from a seminar called
“Basic Youth Conflicts.”

The Acquaintance Level:

e Be alert to each new
person around you.

Pp
© Be a good listener

@ Remind yourself of the
interest God has for them

Casual Level:

e Discover their
points.

e@ Learn about the hopes
and desires they have for life

@ Develop and ask appro
priate and specific questions

e Show interest and con
cern if they share problems
with you.

e Be honest about yourself
and acknowledge your faults
to them when it is appro
priate.

e interest
trustworthiness in
their friend.

e@ Talk with God
them and their needs.
Close Friendship Level
© See potential achieve

ment in their life.

¢ Discover and discuss the
specifie goals they have

© Assume a personal re
sponsibility for the develop
ment of these goals.

e Discern the conflicts
which hinder the develop
ment of these goals.

e Be creative in designing
projects which would help
them achieve these goals.

e Learn how to build their
interest for the projects you
have developed for them

e Be alert to Scriptures
which encourage or guide
them.

Intimate Friendship Level:

Learn to give comfort to
them in trials and sorrows

© Assume personal re
lity for their repu

strong

being

about

Be sensitive to traits and
attitudes which need im
provement in yourself and
them.

e Discern basic causes for
character deficiencies.

e Build interest for cor
rection of these deficiencies.
Ask them to tell you about
your faults.

© Searchs the Scriptures
for keys to a solution.

e@ Be committed to faith
fulness, loyalty and avail
ability.

The Bible says there is &
friend that sticks closer than
a brother. This friend is
Jesus. Begin with Him

Experience a friendship
with One who will never
leave you nor forsake you
and then reach out in some
level of friendship with
another.
