Résumé
--
'Friendship with Jesus': a surprising title in many ways. What exactly does it mean? Is it even possible? Excessively bold? An impossible dream? A ridiculous pretention? No, says the author: friendship with Jesus is what faith in the New Testament proposes. There is nothing more central to Christian life: that is what the men and women who live their faith in Christ crucified and resurrected, now eternally in God's glory, experience. But this essential subject is also a delicate and tricky one, which is what makes Father Coste's meditation in the beautiful pages of this book so valuable: he helps the reader to grasp what is implied by the believer's personal commitment towards He whom Christians consider to be the Son of God, Jesus of Nazareth. The entire Gospels- and particularly St. John's- attests that Jesus wished to be a friend to all men. To try to understand what that means, René Coste proposes to study Jesus' relations with his disciples, with women, children, the poor, the sick, society's drop-outs. More deeply, he opens our ears to what Jesus has to say about the intimacy he shares with the being he calls his Father. Once again, Father Coste guides us on an unexpected intellectual journey through the Scriptures, rich and credible. His information is extensive and rigorous. His serene meditation on his subject is sound, and never loses its freshness for all of us: friendship with Jesus.'
