Just like any other relationship, intimacy with God isn’t something that can be forced or manufactured.

It’s the byproduct of a genuine desire to know God and be known by Him. But before we can really desire God, we must have a clearer understanding of who God is and what he is like. Our experiences shape our experiences of God, often forming and informing a flawed or incomplete vision of who God is that isn’t just intellectual or cognitive, but that is enstoried and deeply embedded in our hearts and bodies.  

In this episode, I talk about God’s invitation to transformational friendship. A kind of relationship that involves our learning to open up the very foundation of us — where we feel most uncertain, exposed, and vulnerable — experiencing the kind presence of God coming to commune with us here.
