Notes

God wants to take you to a new place...

No Christian need live without a keen sense of purpose. And no believer need give up on finding daily closeness with God. But, how do we open ourselves to the intimacy with God so evident in His friendship with Abraham? How can we experience more?

Through years of Prayerful study, Henry Blackaby, author of the best-selling "Experiencing God" materials, has uncovered powerful ways God shaped Abraham to be His friend. The Bible's amazing portraits of Abraham, Blackaby tells us, show how God can make a follower a true friend, and how faith and abedience lead to alifetime of joyous blessing.

The way forward is, of course, not always easy. Sometimes, Blackay explains, God uses difficult events, traumatic experiences, and even our own faithless choices to lead us on to spiritual maturity. Bur, from the first time we respond to God's call through the choices that carry us father along, Abraham's story rings with assurance. "Created to Be God's Friend" demonstrates that God can be trusted to take us to a new place of purified character, growing love, and untold benefits.
