Do the same characteristics of human friendship apply to friendship with Christ? Friendships have the capacity to elevate our lives and make us better people; they play an important role in our moral development, spiritual growth, and personal flourishing. If this is true of human friends, is it also true of friendship with God in Christ? Can friendship with Christ mean the same thing for us today as it did for Christians throughout history? John Vissers explores these questions and more to offer a robust biblical, historical, and theological study of friendship with Christ. Rooted in John 15, this book draws on the threefold office of Christ as prophet, priest, and king to develop a theology of divine friendship against the backdrop of the biblical record and historical tradition. Friendship with Christ, Vissers argues, is a theological framework that continues to provide consolation and hope for a secular age and suffering world. With a foreword by Hans Boersma, this book shows that friendship with Christ has been central to the experience of the providential love of God throughout church history and why it matters today.
