Jesus did not come only to save you from sin. He came to bring you to the Father.

That may be the revelation your faith has been waiting for.

You may know God as Lord. You may honor Him as King. You may believe in His power, trust His Word, and follow Jesus sincerely. Yet somewhere beneath your prayers and spiritual growth, you may still carry a quiet ache: the longing to be known, affirmed, protected, corrected, and loved by a Father.

Rabbi Kirt A. Schneider understands that ache. He grew up reciting the ancient Jewish prayer Avinu Malkeinu - “Our Father, Our King” - yet for years he knew the King more than he experienced the Father. He understood God’s sovereignty, but he had not fully entered the security, tenderness, and belonging of knowing God as Abba.

In Knowing God as Father, Rabbi Schneider takes you into the revelation Jesus came to give: the God who rules the universe wants to be known by you personally as Father.

This is not a call to perform better for God. It is an invitation to receive what Yeshua opened for you - access to the Father.

Whether your earthly father was absent, difficult, loving, distant, broken, or simply human, there is a place within you that no earthly relationship can fully fill. It is the place made for the Father’s love. Until that place is touched by Him, even sincere believers can live with an orphan spirit - striving for approval, guarding themselves from disappointment, and searching for identity in what they do instead of who they belong to.

Through Scripture, Jewish insight, and personal revelation, Rabbi Schneider shows how knowing God as Father changes the way you see everything: your past, your worth, your prayers, your discipline, your protection, and your identity in Christ.

In this book, you will discover how to:

• Recognize the orphan spirit that can quietly shape the way you relate to God, yourself, and others
• Receive the Father’s love in the places marked by fatherlessness, absence, disappointment, or unmet need
• Understand your identity in Christ as a beloved child of God, not a person still trying to earn a place in the house
• Move from striving for God’s approval to resting in the acceptance already given through Jesus
• Trust the heavenly Father who protects, disciplines, and teaches His sons and daughters for their good
• Grow in intimacy with God as you learn to draw near with the confidence of a child who belongs
• Live in freedom in Christ by knowing where you came from, whose you are, and where you are going

Many believers know Jesus as Savior but have not fully entered the relationship He came to restore. Jesus is the way - but the Father is the destination.

You were never meant to know God only from a distance.

The Father you have been searching for has been searching for you.
