CREATED TO BE GOD'S FRIEND God called Abraham to be His friend.  Henry Blackaby uses the example set by Abraham to show how God uses difficult events, traumatic circumstances, and trying life experiences to lead us to spiritual maturity.  Readers will learn how God interacts with His people to transform them into men and women He can call friends.  From the first time we respond to God's Spirit in our lives through the choices that help us develop a worthy character, Abraham's story shows us how we can be transformed and become friends of God.
