112. Supporting Friends God’s Way Through Hard Moments

In this episode of the Strength and Weakness Podcast, Ellen and Morgan continue their series on navigating life’s hardest conversations.

Last week, they talked about how parents can respond when a child comes out.

Today, they shift the perspective: what if it’s your friend who’s going through this with their child? How do you walk alongside them? What does it look like to love, support, and serve a friend in the middle of such a vulnerable and emotional season—without stepping into their lane or making it about you?

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

🌱 Why presence matters more than “fixing”

🛑 The danger of crossing boundaries and drifting into someone else’s lane

💡 Practical ways to support a friend (groceries, meals, gifts of service, and resources)

📖 A biblical framework for love (1 Corinthians 13) as the lens for supporting othersWhether you’re the parent, the friend, or someone who simply wants to grow in empathy, this episode is full of wisdom and encouragement.

✨ If you missed Part 1 (“How to Respond if Your Child Comes Out”), we recommend listening to that episode first!
