Baker Books and Netgalley have provided me with a copy of Friendship with the Friend of Sinners for review:

Although Jesus is called the friend of sinners in the Bible, it's hard to imagine what friendship with Jesus is like. We don't even know how to do friendship with the people around us, despite all the options available to us. How can we feel that close to a holy, perfect, and invisible God? What does it mean for us to see Jesus for who he really is? 

When we struggle to maintain true friendship on earth, how can we experience true friendship with him?

Come along with author Jared C. Wilson as he explores the meaning of being a friend of Jesus. Wilson uncovers the close relationship Jesus had with his followers through candid personal stories and insights into the Gospels. Through radical honesty, consistent communication, and unconditional love, he shows how we can draw closer to Jesus.

Discover the remarkable possibility of closeness with Christ if you have found yourself lonely and longing for connection and friendship.

I give Friendship With the Friend of Sinners five out of five stars!
