By trying to live the gospel. By doing so, I become more like Jesus. It is impossible because Jesus was sinless; nonetheless, it is the best way to know Jesus - by trying to practise his teachings.
Have a blessed and peaceful day

Personally I worry more about getting to know the tooth fairy better. After all she is the one that has all that money.
I would also like to have a personal relationship with the Easter Bunny, I would like more of those Cadbury Egg things in my Easter basket this year.
Obviously though, the really important thing would be to get to know the big guy better....you know who I mean, Santa Claus! Now that would be awesome.
I don't know tho, I never tried to have a relationship with a dead person before.....kinda weird but each to their own I guess.
Good luck.

If you immediately exclude the gospels, you are not looking to know Jesus at all.

Besides reading the Gospels you can try meditating on episodes
of His life in a prayerful way,by prayer we can come closer to Jesus and keep connected,and He will gave us grace to grow in Him.

The best way to get to know Jesus is better is through prayer and spending time with him.Read spiritual works on Jesus life and then spend time reflecting on that in prayer.

First you must be born again. Being born again means accepting Christ as your Lord and Savior and repenting/being forgiven of sinful ways (read John 3:3 and Romans 10:9-13). Forgive and love others. Also, prayer and observing how God moves in your life as well as the lives of others. God bless you! Peace - John 14:27 P.S. You must still read all Scripture. "All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work." - 2Timothy 3:16

Prayer and worship helps. Find a few evening services to go to. Put as much effort into getting to know him as possible. Find a church that has a good worship team.

I assume you are referring to the Messiah. I would begin by calling Him by His right name. Ex.23:13 forbids the use of pagan names for the Almighty (of Which "Iesus" is one) Read and obey all of Scripture, not just a verse of two.

Invite him over for a spot of tea maybe, just don't stare when the crumpet crumbs fall through the holes in his hands.
