Making and Keeping Good Friendships. We have to be deliberate about it.

Austin Gardner • March 23, 2024

First, try to be intentional in what you say and do. Think before you act, and don't let your emotions take over. It's something I've struggled with too. Life can get tough, and if we're not ready, we might end up doing stuff we regret later.



Next up, put your friendships at the top of your list. Take the time to build and care for them on purpose. When your friendships are super important to you, you'll naturally want the best for your friends, and that can help you avoid feeling bad about things later.


Now, don't judge your friends every day like you're checking the stock market. See them for who they are, without jumping to quick conclusions. Everyone has off days, so don't let those get in the way of your friendships.

Also, work on being the best version of yourself in each friendship. Spend time and effort on being a good friend, so you don't have regrets later.


Last but not least, treat every moment with your friends like it's special. Life goes by fast, and you can't get those moments back. So, enjoy every bit of your friendships, and you won't have to look back with regret.

Follow these tips, and you'll be on your way to having strong and meaningful friendships. Keep it real, and remember to be a good friend!

Gratitude, a sentiment often tucked away in the recesses of our hearts, possesses the transformative power to enrich not only our lives but also the lives of those around us.

In January of 1987 Betty, the kids, and I arrived in Querétaro, Mexico to study Spanish. I literally didn’t know ten words. I am forever indebted to Georgia, Hermana Luisa, Webb for the language institute she ran for many years. She was strict. She pushed hard. Betty cried on more than one occasion. Without the challenge I know that I never would have learned the language. The language school gave me structure, discipline, help learning what to do next. Read the rest of the letter then go watch this video the BBF did of Miss Webb. When you get this letter, Lord willing, Betty and I will be in Mexico and we will be visiting this wonderful godly lady. I thought of this lady often over the years. I remembered how hard she had been on me. I remembered being tortured it seemed but I survived Hermana Luisa and she made me a thriving missionary.  Thank you Hermana Luisa for helping a red neck Tennessee hillbilly learn enough Spanish to do some ministry. God bless you. So know that language school might be very beneficial for you. Efficient Resource Utilization: Organized lesson plans and materials ensure learners make the most of their study time, covering essential language elements in a coherent manner. Clear Learning Objectives: Well-organized courses outline clear learning objectives, helping learners understand what to expect and what is expected of them. Resource Accessibility: Organized language schools provide learners with easy access to a variety of resources, including textbooks, multimedia materials, and language software.
