Ever been called by a less than desirable name? Children, even a lot of adults, can use names to belittle, even bully. On the other hand, if you have ever been honored with a title you know that names can bring honor. Names carry a lot of value, they connect us, and in Bible times names carried a lot of deep meaning. So, did you know that in the Bible the God of the universe has more than one name? Including one that was considered by the Jews as un-speakable? This month, our teacher Ben Cachiaras, the lead minister with Mountain Christian Church in Joppa, Maryland, is taking us on a journey to intimately learn who God is and he’s doing it from the names God uses to describe Himself. So, when Moses asked God who he should say sent him, God told Moses, tell them I AM sent you. If you take just a moment to stop and consider the scope of a name like I Am you will probably have a hard time wrapping your head around it? At the same time, it paints quite a picture of the incredible God who, by the way, also knows your name!
