Befriending God

How We Are Undone, Changed, and Made New

De: Tanya Godsey

Narrado por: Tanya Godsey

Do you long to feel closer to God? Are you searching for a faith that's more than just going through the motions?

Let’s be honest: we often feel distant from God. We spend a lot more time looking like we’re faithful than living out of a life-giving relationship. Our souls ache from the lack of intimacy. Something is missing. We know life isn’t supposed to be this way. What we really want is to know God and be known. We yearn for honest, ongoing connection with God as a real person.

In Befriending God, Tanya Godsey invites us to move beyond religious performance and into authentic relational intimacy through:

• Biblical character studies illuminating how we can encounter God in the struggles, questions, and complexities of our lives
• Vulnerable, powerful examples of God's relational transformation in the context of a marginalized community
• Practical guidance for setting aside faulty cultural norms that keep us from friendship with God
• Discussion questions and reflective exercises

If you are craving a genuine connection with God that transcends religious to-dos and cultural currents, Befriending God will help you experience transformation and renewal in your spiritual journey. Discover the joy of knowing God intimately in every season, heartache, and ordinary moment.

Prophetic Poetry

Tanya Godsey is a prophet among us. Her beautiful poetic style of writing is powerful and beautiful. In "Befriending God," Tanya shares her story and invites us into a deeper relationship with God in the midst of the struggle, the heartbreak, and the silence. In this book, we are exposed to a story of flagrant racism and oppression and the God who is on the side of the oppressed and the marginalized. It is a story of God bringing beauty from ashes. I encourage Christians to read or listen to this book and to discover where God is in the midst of your struggle. "Befriending God" reminds us that God is a God of relationship first and is always inviting us to deeper intimacy.
