Wasting Time With God Questions: Friendship

    Posted by Klaus Issler on September 11, 2008

On page 39, I state the main point of chapter two ("Friendship: Approaching the God Who is Love"):

"If we do not increase our experiences of intimacy on the human plane, we limit the kind of intimate relationship we can experience with God."

• What evidence is marshaled to support this claim?
• What other evidence might be brought to bear on the issue?
• Should this claim be modified? If so how?
• Why do you think "friendship" with God is not commonly discussed in Christian circles? What tensions underlie this concept?

We welcome your comments on these questions pertaining to chapter two of Wasting Time with God. Let us know how this chapter is beneficial to your life.
