Move beyond knowing about God—and discover the joy of friendship.

Do your prayers feel more like a routine than a relationship? Do you long to hear God’s voice, yet wonder whether that kind of closeness is available to you?

Your hunger for more can become the beginning of a deeper walk. God’s invitation reaches into your ordinary days, your questions, and even your failures.

Drawing on more than forty years of walking with the Lord, Hank Kunneman shares a life-shaping prayer encounter: “Hank, you are My friend!” Through Scripture and personal experience, he shows you how to seek God’s heart and respond to Jesus’ invitation in John 15:15.

In Becoming a Friend of God, you’ll discover how to:

• Recognize ways God communicates as you learn to hear Him.
• Renew your spiritual hunger when your prayer life feels dry.
• Respond to failure with repentance that draws you toward God.
• Establish consistent time with God that deepens your daily fellowship.
• Remove distractions that crowd out your attention to His presence.

Jesus has defeated the enemy and opened your way to the Father. Draw near with confidence and answer His invitation to friendship.
