Scenario

When your friend's religious conversion changes your friendship

My best friend found God in a way that changed everything about how she sees the world and I'm happy for her but I also feel like I'm losing her and every conversation now has this undercurrent of her wanting to save me. We've been close for fifteen years and I don't know how to navigate this without either pretending to be someone I'm not or watching our friendship fade.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Sacred discovery in one person creates distance and unspoken evangelism that threatens the foundation of intimate friendship.
