Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Friendship of Christ I was homeless, and wretched, and starving and in peril every hour; and He offered me Shelter and comfort and food and safety; but I was ungrateful still. At last He crossed my path and with tears in His eyes He besought me saying, Come and abide With me. Let me tell you how he treats me now. He supplies all my wants. He gives me more than I dare ask. He anticipates my every need. He begs me to ask for more. He never reminds me of my past ingratitude. He never rebukes me for my past follies. Let me tell you further what I think of Him. He is as good as He is great. His love is as ardent as it is true. He is as lavish of His promises as He is faithful in keep ing them. He is as jealous of my love as He is deserving of it. I am in all things His debtor, but He bids me call Him Friend. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Friendship of Jesus: The Secret of a Victorious Life All true friendship breathes the tenderest and most fragrant sentiment, just as the rose exhales perfume; but, like the rose, it must live by the laws of its own nature. We must be true to the laws of psychology, of ethics, and of God's Spirit if we would share with Jesus His Friendship. I have scarcely mentioned the wonderful friend ship between Jesus and His three great apostles, Peter, John and Paul. Should this effort find a place in the hearts of those who read it, I will write again about Jesus and some of His friends. May I here express my deep appreciation of the encouragement and faithful criticism of many friends. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christ and His Friends: A Series of Revival Sermons The sermons in this volume were delivered in Hanson Place M. E. Church, Brooklyn, N. Y., during the month of January, 1895, in a series of revival meetings. It will be noted that the texts and themes are all selected from St. John's Gospel. The themes were selected some months prior to the delivery of the discourses, and such time as could be spared from the regular work of my ministry was devoted to the work of outline, Scriptural study, and the gathering of illustrative material from all sources open to me. When the time arrived, after a few hours' study during the morning of the day in which the sermon was to be delivered, it was first dictated to a stenographer, though it was afterward in the evening preached without notes. The entire thirty-one sermons were thus at last forged and delivered during that earnest campaign. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: "His previous books have already gained for Dr. Miller a wide circle of admirers, to whom his latest volume will be especially welcome. The subject of the personal friendships of Jesus Christ is in itself very attractive, and it lends itself with more than usual readiness to Dr. Miller's special style of treatment. The chapters which deal with the relations between Jesus and Peter and the sons of Zebedee and particularly well worth reading, and amply supplied with the pertinent illustration and that close insight into character which always mark Dr. Miller's writings." - The Bookseller, January 8,. 1897 "All the writings of this gifted Pastor and Editor reveal spiritual mindedness, deep experiences, fruitful study of the word and the kindliest interest in others. The theme of this volume would seem to be especially congenial to its author as he shows the 'human heartedness of Jesus.' It may be there are those whose reverence for Christ as divine has made difficult the realization of his sympathy as human. It was never so with me. The larger Christ was always the nearer Christ. Infinitude that has only the dimension of distance from you is no true conception. If there be those, the author fears there are, then this little volume should be a sure corrective. Dr. Miller is peculiarly discriminating in his portrayal of those whom Jesus touched. He prompts us not to deny the fragrant offering of affectionate acknowledgment to those who have loved us - before their burial. Christ's friendships, renewed after he arose, are made to assure us that 'heaven will be a more natural place than we imagine it will be.' The final chapter, on Jesus as a Friend, is richly suggestive of the new type of friendship which Christ has introduced among men, and of the tenderness, patience, gentleness and forgiveness which are its distinctive characteristics." -Wooster Alumni Bulletin, Volume 13, 1898 "In the delightful little book entitled 'Personal Friendships of Jesus,' J. R. Miller, D. D., tells us how this yearning was met, and how the human-heartedness of Jesus shines out in his relations to his family, his disciples and other personal friends. The subject is treated with great thoroughness, including the conditions of friendship with Jesus, the principles upon which he selected his friends, his secret friends, his ministry of love to them in their sorrows, his tender farewell, the character of Jesus as a friend, and the continuation and consummation of friendship, commenced on earth, in the heavenly life. Upon this point Dr. Miller writes with greatness tenderness and beauty: 'Even at the best human friendships only begin in this life; in heaven they will reach their best and holiest possibilities. There are lives which only touch each other in this world and then separate, going their different ways, like ships that pass in the night. There will be time enough in heaven for any such faintest beginnings of friendship to be wrought out in beauty. Friendship with Jesus here touches but the shore of an infinite ocean; in heaven, unhindered, in uninterrupted fellowship, we shall be forever learning more of this love of Christ which passeth knowledge.' Many hearts that have been touched by the sorrow of parting from friends will find joy and consolation in the beautiful thoughts and cheering words of Dr. Miller." -Christian Work: Illustrated Family Newspaper, Volume 63, 1897 1.

Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author Kristin Hannah comes a powerful novel of love, loss, and the magic of friendship. . . . now a #1 Netflix series! In the turbulent summer of 1974, Kate Mularkey has accepted her place at the bottom of the eighth-grade social food chain. Then, to her amazement, the "coolest girl in the world" moves in across the street and wants to be her friend. Tully Hart seems to have it all---beauty, brains, ambition. On the surface they are as opposite as two people can be: Kate, doomed to be forever uncool, with a loving family who mortifies her at every turn. Tully, steeped in glamour and mystery, but with a secret that is destroying her. They make a pact to be best friends forever; by summer's end they've become TullyandKate. Inseparable. So begins Kristin Hannah's magnificent new novel. Spanning more than three decades and playing out across the ever-changing face of the Pacific Northwest, Firefly Lane is the poignant, powerful story of two women and the friendship that becomes the bulkhead of their lives. From the beginning, Tully is desperate to prove her worth to the world. Abandoned by her mother at an early age, she longs to be loved unconditionally. In the glittering, big-hair era of the eighties, she looks to men to fill the void in her soul. But in the buttoned-down nineties, it is television news that captivates her. She will follow her own blind ambition to New York and around the globe, finding fame and success . . . and loneliness. Kate knows early on that her life will be nothing special. Throughout college, she pretends to be driven by a need for success, but all she really wants is to fall in love and have children and live an ordinary life. In her own quiet way, Kate is as driven as Tully. What she doesn't know is how being a wife and mother will change her . . . how she'll lose sight of who she once was, and what she once wanted. And how much she'll envy her famous best friend. . . . For thirty years, Tully and Kate buoy each other through life, weathering the storms of friendship---jealousy, anger, hurt, resentment. They think they've survived it all until a single act of betrayal tears them apart . . . and puts their courage and friendship to the ultimate test. Firefly Lane is for anyone who ever drank Boone's Farm apple wine while listening to Abba or Fleetwood Mac. More than a coming-of-age novel, it's the story of a generation of women who were both blessed and cursed by choices. It's about promises and secrets and betrayals. And ultimately, about the one person who really, truly knows you---and knows what has the power to hurt you . . . and heal you. Firefly Lane is a story you'll never forget . . . one you'll want to pass on to your best friend.
