'He is a real friend, which means that, over the years, we have come to appreciate each others' strengths and weaknesses. Real Christian friends are like that. We fail one another and in repentance and restoration, we are made stronger and more humble. It is nice to have friends like that. Comforting. Restorative.'
Rosario Champagne Butterfield, The Secret Thoughts of an Unlikely Convert, p.136.
