In 1988, Surface gave us that unforgettable R&B anthem: "Closer Than Friends"

"Right now, we're just friends... But I pray someday you'll surrender...To love so tender I won't push you... As long as you know that my love is true..."

But what happens when "just friends" starts to feel like something divinely deeper?

In this episode of The Second Time Around, we share our journey of discovering love in a place we never expected—within our friendship. When you're both prayer partners and pew buddies, serving in God's house together, crossing the friendship line isn't always easy. Between side-eyes from the sanctuary and the questions from well-meaning saints, there's a lot to navigate before love even gets a chance to bloom.

This one's for you if:
💬 You're wondering what it looks like when God answers your prayer with someone already in your circle
💬 You're thinking about becoming prayer partners with a friend and need a little clarity
💬 You want to hear how we kept Christ at the center while feelings were growing

Come sit with us as we tell the story of how we moved from "Amen" to "I do" — with friendship, faith, and a whole lot of intentionality.
