S 2 Episode 3: Building Healthy Friendships

[@quilterneisha2025]

I am that woman that wants those grounded spiritually connected Christian friends. I have prayed and reached out... its happening..

[@BriaBarrows]

Me too

[@TBoogy-ex7yo]

In honestly have never had a sisterhood or friendships that goes this deep and that is this honest and vulnerable but I pray one day I will!

[@angiebethea2179]

I'm praying with your sister a good God-fearing group of women in your life in Jesus name we pray and agree right now amen

[@BriaBarrows]

Me too. I don’t think it’s fair :(

[@sher-sasha9817]

The prayer group was started by an individual who would someday need a strong circle around her to get through her relationship issues. Ladies, pay attention to the nugging and suggestions of the spirit of God. He is way ahead of you! Thank you Mrs. Hurst

[@ellenchappell1574]

Well I am crying, that is one of the most beautiful, amazing things I have ever seen. Thank you for sharing and showing us what love can look like!

[@Jacknjellyfries]

I pray that we get this!

[@TGiles-mk3js]

I loved everything about this! Seeing genuine Godly friendship among these Christian women gives me hope and is so inspiring. Praying that I’ll be able to experience the same type of connections with a circle of friends in the same way 😊 Thanks Crystal for sharing!

[@jamielott1835]

Just wanted to let you know that this video was RIGHT on time! This is an area that I’ve been really seeking to fix in my life, and it’s fueled my intentionality in pursuing solid, godly female friendships. I feel like I have strategy now! 🙌🏾 Thank you!!

[@ChrystalHurst]

So glad to hear this!

[@chandykalu]

@@ChrystalHurst love from Kenya. The sound quality though......can we please do something about that?

[@TheMissdgwim]

I truly enjoyed this. I watched it twice!! I've been praying on how to be a good steward over my friendships and how not to self-sabotage because of past hurt. Then this morning God led me to this. I'm going to ask a few friends separately to pray together once a month and maybe eventually we move to a group. Thank you!! :)

[@Ohne920]

TheMissdgwim Same here!!

[@wanjeriwachira4977]

There's so much to learn from this group, the Lord bless you immensely

[@mygirltv5064]

I was not going to watch it because I saw how long it was LOL!!! but I could not stop watching and the time just flew by. I will be sharing this. last year I started a crochet group with a few ladies from my church and work. and this has made me want to restart it again for this year. Thank you! all for this I truly appreciate it

[@ChrystalHurst]

Africa James Glad you watched!

[@lynnbrown3777]

This is definitely confirmation about a wives' group that I've had on my mind for the past few weeks. Thank you. I gained some wisdom and I definitely have some work to do before I put it together.

[@Sheida03]

This was SO good! THIS morning I was thinking about this again, how I need a godly friend! I tried before (disappointments/betrays), gave grace an all when the person had a busy/tough season, also most of the time I am considered the ‘older & wiser’ one even if I am younger & open/vulnerable... people just seems to think that I got it all together! On top of this comes the fact that (for about 2,5 years now) I am a pastor’s wife in a foreign country. So yeah, it is a real thing! I am part of pastor’s wives groups online and it has blessed me A LOT!, but nothing in personal yet. I am thinking about starting a group. This conversation has been an encouragement to me to just continue to pray and be intentional again(!) to reach out and let God guide. Thank you for your ministry and may God bless all of you for sharing and being the light we are called to be. Hug 🤗

[@faithkibiku2017]

Praying for you, for this sister

[@Sheida03]

Thank you Faith!

[@gracealexander7439]

This is a great discussion. Friendships have been always tough for me. But, as I've grown with Christ it's becoming more and more important that over time, I need to continue to work towards being that healthy person myself and then with this discussion being intentional about building healthy relationships. I hope you continue to discuss this topic. It's one of my goals for 2019!

[@hollyweaver7292]

You ladies need to write a sister prayer book!

[@jukes243]

I've always wanted friendship like this. These women are beautiful inside and out. Every single one of them.

[@lifeatpecancottage5263]

TIMIMG! I am meeting with a small group of ladies today for prayer for the first time. I have been praying for some guidelines to keep it pure and productive. Thanks again for a great discussion!

[@Webbgurl2000]

Making, Being, and Keeping Friends isn’t easy, but these women show how wonderfully necessary it is. Thank you, all

[@nadiner1]

I'm also in Oklahoma (Prosper). This is an awesome display of women coming together for the Kingdom❤ I love the intentionality of these women doing life together.

Nadine Reeves me too. I’m in Frisco 😂 we’re northerns lol

[@delisarogersgco1692]

LoL.....I'm also in little 'ole Oklahoma!

[@eLLBdotmusic]

I pray for a sisterhood like this especially now as I renewed my walk with God. It would be soooo great to have someone share/reflect on the experiences I am having learning the different books. The stories are so fascinating and eye opening. The purpose of me starting my YT channel was to start a podcast sharing my walk with God but my anxiety has gotten the best of me. I'm working through it and started to write on my YT community page. I'm glad I found this YT channel. The entire family is great.

[@kristalmonique]

This was so powerful thanks for sharing! Sometimes you make yourself an island not realizing how enriching a "sister circle" can be. Definitely got some work to do.

[@ChrystalHurst]

Me too!

[@PrepareHisWay]

This was simply LIFE! It's so amazing that as I was listening to this, the friend whom I was thinking about starting a prayer circle with actually called me! BAM! Coincidence...I think NOT! Thank You Holy Spirit for the confirmation! I shared a bit with her and she's EXCITED and said she so needs that! Glory to God! Thank you Chrystal for your obedient ministry and thanks to ALL these women for their transparency and letting God use their Sister prayer circle to spark a flame in others to PRAY and do Christian LIFE TOGETHER as women! Love you all in the love of The Lord!

[@ChrystalHurst]

See how God moves!

[@YarrowEmpressLLC]

This is something I'm in constant prayer about. Being new to Dallas has been so hard. I'm from California too, and know no one here. But in regards to meeting other sisters in Christ it has been a struggle I totally understand the importance of being able to relate. One reason I know it has been hard to meet girl friends is because I'm working a lot doing all that God has called me and my family here to do. Another is I dont trust people and their motives of with my personal life. I'm currently in prayer and fasting that God sends me a sister in Christ to be just that a sister/friend/someone I can trust/family/and prayer warrior. This is beautiful praying God can answer this prayer for me soon. It's been 6months now. Thank you for sharing this Chrystal this gives me hope.💜🙏

[@YarrowEmpressLLC]

[@trinaunderwood-bailey1349]

I hear ya. I don’t trust women either. Until the Church starts to teach Women how to walk in integrity and love, this loneliness many of us feel will continue to grow. I want to be able to share and listen without having someone tell my secret thoughts to another friend or someone else in the Church. I want to be able to invite another woman over without her hitting on my husband. I know this seems like an awful thing to say, but someone had to say it and it might as well be me! God’s Girls must have each other’s backs instead of sharpening knives to put in each other’s backs.

[@your.beautiful.mind.now.]

Lord knows I long for a Sisterhood like this. Women who know how to celebrate each other and love each other without all the foolish gossip, jealousy, or judgements. Women who literally hold each other accountable. Have their own relationship with TMH. Maybe I have to heal first. It's hard for me to make friends because I know once I care about you I give my heart to you and I trust that you value me as much as I value you... I honestly don't want it broken or violated. I know TMH will send me a circle of married women who don't see me as supply. In the mean time, I'm in my healing process! This is so beautiful!

[@leelee1921]

Wow I think that this is amazing! A group of women in a mature relationship with each other! This is inspiring and absolutely refreshing!

[@911danette]

This. Was. Everything. Thank you.

[@tanyadixon7980]

Sisterhood friendships are a dying thing where I live, and at my church. Godly pure friendships that enrich and edify, increasing the relationship with God in a profound way among pure Christian women is a MUST. Thanks for creating this broadcast, Crystal. I will be happy to partake in the conversation based on "Holy Spirit sister wisdom!"🙌👏

[@kickinitwithkursten]

This is so awesome. I'm in a season in my life where God is allowing me to serve others and get out of my comfort zone. I now have a friend who we pray for eachother, and attend events involved with church. We're still building our sisterhood to be able to get together more often, pray together and have play dates with the kids. Sisterhood is so important, and I am now seeing why its important to have more intentional women in our loves who are living for Jesus....those kind of women makes all the difference ❤ I love this channel.

The best girlie information I've seen online since I started watching on KZbin... The learning points, I will keep so close to my heart. God bless u ladies

[@ckks0nyoutube]

ok, i saw this and i tried so hard to ignore it because i had other plans for the day which were pressing and still are but heck i couldn't resist; it was so worth it! i did this with a few friends (also students) when i was studying in a foreign country and was broke most of the time, it was literally life saving, like i would not have graduated, without the weekly prayer time when i could offload and have people who loved me carry me in prayer. Overtime life happened and we went our separate ways, but the positive impact on my life, well i will never be the same again. I have been asking God for real friends, am going to take the advice and show myself friendly and boldly approach people as the Holy Spirit leads! by the way our prayer group had guys and gals, for those who feel they cant do gals only, it just happened that way.

Good Afternoon This video really blessed me. The ladies were authentic, honest and you can tell that this is a genuine group of Godly women.

[@ChelsaSMoore]

Woooww! I'm so glad that I stumbled on this video. This was the most refreshing conversation on sisterhood & friendship I've ever watched. I LOVE LOVE LOVE that the foundation of this sister circle was prayer. I'm sitting hearing reflecting on the sister circles I've established that were centered around prayer, health, and other interests (running, book clubs, etc.) I must say that having intentional sisterhood has changed and saved my life! Especially as a single woman! I've relied on my girls during different seasons and it's help me evolve into the woman I am today. I wish that every woman could have a sister circle! It's soooo necessary! Thank you for this video Chrystal!

So beautiful, awesome and helpful. I just formed an accountability group with a group of ladies at the beginning of January.

[@myfavoritethings8093]

I was part of 3 community groups at different times and they all dissolved. We just never really meshed and so the groups dissolved for other reasons as well. But I look at this sisterhood and I just want to weep. I have sisters & we're not as close as this group is. And my heart hurts for not having something like this in my life. I pray that I will and very soon bc I'm dying on the inside.

[@Lanea2015]

Thank you so much Chrystal for this video. I was so blessed by this. Oct last year we launched a Mother/Daughter group inspired by Wynter Pitts legacy. We are reading her book She is Yours and having our 1st discussion this Friday. I’m so excited what God is going to do in our group.

[@anitajones7090]

Loved this! Thank you Chrystal & Priscilla. We all know someone who needed to hear this, I needed to hear this. Iron sharpens iron. If we want true and lasting friendships, we have to first be friendly, accountable and transparent. Jesus at the center of it all. Let God do the rest. This was good. Yaasss :-)
