Friends

For this second volume of Stories by Teenagers, we invited young people to write about friends. These wonderful stories by teenagers illuminate with biblical wisdom.

"I have always considered myself a person who has many friendly acquaintances, but not many true friends. I have always needed many people and activities going on in my life at one time, but because there is so much going on, I never really felt that anyone considered me a close friend. That is, until my father's heart attack and surgery this past November. I've always heard that you judge your friends by who stands by you when things are all wrong, not when things are going well." (Jordan E. Walsh)
