Knowing God: God is a Friend

Friendship is a close and enduring bond based on trust, compassion, and mutual respect. True friendship is a special blessing in life. It is a gift God designed for all of us to experience. The good news is that God offers us his friendship. He has named us His friends. Proverbs speaks of a friend who sticks even closer than a brother, and thankfully, Jesus both calls us His friend and treats each of his followers as His brother.

But what does it truly mean to be a friend of God? Many of us may have overlooked or not even thought about the concept of being friends with God. However, when we understand and accept that God is our close friend, it significantly alters the way we interact with Him in our daily lives. In this week's episode, Ross O'Hair and Tom Price explore the friendship God extends to us through Christ and how God is the wonderful, close friend with whom we are meant to share our lives.
