Drawing on the friendship of David and Jonathan, this sermon argues that God designed friendship not for peacetime comfort but for adversity. True 'war buddy' friendships — modeled on Jonathan's loyalty to David — require three commitments: staying loyal even when it is costly, rooting for a friend's success even when it is personally painful, and pointing one another toward God's hand in the midst of hardship. Jesus is the ultimate war buddy, and His example calls believers to pursue and cultivate this kind of intentional, covenant friendship in every relationship.
