This week guest speaker Mariana Parkhotyuk continued the "New Year, New You" sermon series with a message titled "Friendships". In this message, she shares the importance of mentorship and the kind of people we surround ourselves with.

Sermon Notes:

Friendship

Genesis 2:18 Then the Lord God said, “It is not good for man to be alone.”

Statistic:

In a lifetime, you make 396 friends, but only 1 out of 12 friendship lasts.
Not having any friends can be dangerous to your health, just as bad as smoking or being overweight
Your brain reacts the same way when you are in danger an when a friend is.
Close friends share about 1% of their DNA. A recent study suggests that close friends share 1% DNA making them as close genetically as fourth cousins.
Your close friends influence your weight and your health habits.
Interesting fact: Friendship is the emotion babies recognize even before they start walking or talking.
Study conducted at the University of Chicago, even young babies can understand social relationships, especially friendship, before they can walk or talk. Infants are able to watch strangers interact and then make inferences about whether those two people are likely to be friends.
Speaking of young age.

A person can bring the greatest joy or our deepest pain. We can never say that you are not influential, or you cannot make an impact, because you are not on stage or you are not a leader.

2 Ways Enemy uses People to Destroy You

Isolation – Will always make you feel like “People are the problem”
Toxic People – Will always make you feel like “You’re the problem”
I want to begin with Isolation.

What isolation does is that Your world dies before you do.
Loneliness is breaking our hearts. It begins emotionally and then physically
Social isolation is a growing epidemic-
Loneliness has doubled from 20% to 40% since the 1980s
Individuals with less social connection have disrupted sleep patterns, altered immune system, more inflammation and higher levels of stress hormones.
Isolation increases the risk of heart disease by 29% & stroke by 32%
Socially isolated individuals had a 30% higher risk of dying in the next 7 years, and that this effect was largest in middle age.
Decline in cognitive thinking in older adults
Isolated individuals are twice as likely to die prematurely as those with more robust social interactions .
Socially isolated children have significantly poorer health 20 years later.
Loneliness is as important a risk factor for early death as obesity and smoking.
Loneliness is contagious: when one person becomes lonely, he withdraws from his social circle and causes others to do the same.
Cause of Isolation: Social cues, sensitivity, taking this personal, easily offended…

A psychology professor encourages people to continue regular attendance at services where you will benefit from community.
