Description
People have a need for relationships. Historically these relationships have been developed by natural associations. In the last few decades these natural associations have been lost, largely due to the proliferation of individualism. Consequently we have created relationships to fill this void through counselors, therapists, spiritual mentors, disciplers, and so on. Jan and Eugene Peterson challenge this view and suggest the need to learn how to develop the natural but very difficult task of being a 'friend'.
