Today, Roberta talks to Tega Taylor about her new book Hey Friend: 31 Journaling Devotions on Friendship (for Girls, by Girls), available from B&H Publishers.
As the world experiences a loneliness epidemic, we need friendship as much as we ever have before.
People could live their whole lives online. School, church, work, and a social life can all be found on the internet, providing opportunities to trade deep friendships for convenient yet shallow acquaintances. The easier it becomes to be independent, the harder it is to find togetherness––especially for teen girls and young women.
Hey Friend: 31 Journaling Devotions on Friendship helps girls know that God made them for friendship. They don’t have to live life alone. Each devotion is written by young women for young women and offers relatable stories of friendship, passages of Scripture, journaling questions, and practical ways to find friends instead of staying isolated. Friendships end, begin, and change all the time, and Hey Friend is every girl's guide to learning how to navigate friendship in changing seasons from switching schools to going off to college to needing to walk away from certain friendships and invest in others.
