In this episode, Matt helps you identify whether your current circle is pulling you toward God’s best for your life or holding you back.

Take time to evaluate your friendships. Are you constantly giving without receiving? Are the people around you challenging you to grow, or are they keeping you stuck? Have an honest conversation with your friends or accountability group about what healthy friendships look like and what changes need to be made. Remember, your relationships are key to fulfilling your God-given calling, and it’s okay to prune unhealthy friendships to make space for ones that push you forward.
