JESUS SELECTS HIS FRIENDS

In the context of Jesus selecting His friends, we explore the relational aspect of God depicted in Genesis 1:26-27, where humanity is created in His image. Friendship is emphasized throughout the Scriptures, from the benefits of companionship in Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 to the wisdom of choosing friends in Proverbs. Jesus Himself was a "people person," calling His disciples after prayer and nurturing their growth. As we examine the responsibilities of friendship in John 15, we are challenged to consider our own relationship with Jesus and how we can embody His love.
