Personal Friendships of Jesus
Produced by Al Haines
"Personal Friendships of Jesus" by J. R. Miller is a reflective theological work written in the late 19th century. This book examines the personal friendships that Jesus formed during his life, exploring how these relationships reveal the humanity of Christ and provide insight into divine love and friendship. The author aims to illustrate the depth of Jesus' connections with various figures, emphasizing the significance of these friendships for both Jesus and his followers. The opening of the book introduces the central theme by highlighting the humanheartedness of Jesus, arguing against the misconception that His divine nature removed Him from typical human experiences. Miller delves into the idea that Jesus, while fully divine, experienced human emotions and desires—such as the yearning for companionship and love. He begins to establish a foundation for the subsequent chapters, which will recount specific examples of Jesus's friendships, including those with his mother, his disciples, and others close to Him. The author posits that understanding these relationships helps readers grasp the essence of divine friendship, making it more attainable for individuals yearning for a closer connection with Christ.
