Jesus is more concerned with relationship because He knows that once one is in relationship with Him, change comes as a natural product of continually seeking Him.Wilkerson uses both personal anecdotes and parables from scripture to illustrate this. One of the main themes of Friend of Sinners is that Jesus is very accessible. Humanity and religion have foisted rules and regulations upon Him that can serve as impediments. However, Jesus came to seek and save the lost, and He wants nothing to stand in the way of Him doing so.
Wilkerson's writing style is fluid and very accessible to anyone, regardless of where one might be in his/her spiritual journey. Friend of Sinners serves as both a primer for those who know nothing about Jesus as well as for a good, solid reminder for those who have known Him for years. I would recommend this book to anyone willing to read it.
