About this listen

These days more than ever, finding good friends is just plain hard. Even for those who are lucky enough to have found their people, making time to keep friendships strong and healthy can be a daunting task. Can We Be Friends? tackles the issue head on, taking a fun and honest look at friendship: why we need friends, where we find friends, and even when to let friends go.

Author Rebecca Frech details the different types of friends, ways to grow intentionally in friendship, and how to decide which friends really deserve a place in our inner circle. Ultimately, Can We Be Friends? reminds us that authentic, life-giving friendship not only gives us a stable tribe in which to belong, it helps us to become our true self.

With relatable and personal anecdotes, this audiobook will take you beyond the shallow facade of friendship and help you find your people on the other side.

Limited by Christian preaching

First of all, I’m not an atheist - far from it! - but this book needs more of an advance warning by being expressly marketed as a Christian book, including mention of this in the blurb. It’s very USA Christian centric.

This is not always a bad thing. Parts of the book are charming - I LOVE Grandma’s recipe at the end!! - and the emphasis on family cohesion is something that few people will vehemently disagree with.

Still, the persistent discussion of [specifically the Christian] God in people’s lives, narrows the reach of this book. It is unnecessary to include so much god talk in my view. There is genuinely sound advice on friendship in this book that transcends religion and even culture in some instances. So, why narrow its scope by alienating the non-Christian audience, by making an emphasis on the Christian god?

If you can look beyond the Christian dogma, the points about friendship are truly valuable. But some people will be so turned off by the narrow religious approach that they won’t reach the end. That is a shame.
