Where do you find God? Does He seem elusive in your religion? Hard to find in your church? Distant in your experience? Are you doing all the right things but still struggling to find purpose in your life and passion in your faith?

Award-winning author Anne Graham Lotz has known this struggle at a deeply personal level. As she studied Scripture, she found her answer in the amazing story of Abraham, an ordinary man who became extraordinary because he pursued God no matter what the cost. Despite struggling with compromise, fear, family quarrels, failures and disappointment, Abraham became a man God called His friend.

In The Magnificent Obsession, Anne shares her own pursuit of the God-filled life. The desire to intimately know the God of Abraham is now the focus of her faith and the goal of her life, flooding her heart with joyful purpose. Through personal anecdotes, unforgettable stories, and God-inspired insights, she invites readers to draw closer to the God who is as committed to them as he was to Abraham, a God who longs to call them friend.
