Synopsis

'Did not Jesus himself say, 'I call you friends ? (John 15:15) If we are all friends of Jesus... then we are also friends of one another. This insight led me to reflect on the theme of friendship as a way of coming to understand better the message of Jesus Christ' Brother John of Taizé. This book for both seekers and Christians emphasises the importance of friendship for human understanding and community. Beginning with stories of friendship in biblical accounts and the teachings of the early leaders of the church, Brother John describes friendship as the basis of community at Taizé, an international ecumenical community that draws thousands of young people from around the globe each year to join together in worship and prayer. Such a worldwide network of friends has incredible potential to change the world for the better as they live out their Christian faith.
