About this listen

God's identity is beyond what we could ever fully express in human words. But Scripture uses one particular word to describe the distinctiveness of God's character: the Hebrew word hesed.

Hesed is a concept so rich in meaning that it doesn't translate well into any single English word or phrase. Michael Card unpacks the many dimensions of hesed, often expressed as lovingkindness, covenant faithfulness, or steadfast love. He explores how hesed is used in the Old Testament to reveal God's character and how he relates to his people. Ultimately, the fullness of hesed is embodied in the incarnation of Jesus. As we follow our God of hesed, we ourselves are transformed to live out the way of hesed, marked by compassion, mercy, and faithfulness.

Discover what it means to be people of an everlasting love beyond words.

We need Hesedic Christianity!

What a beautiful study. What a beautiful word. What a beautiful God we serve.
Inexpressible is a wonderful book that manages to be as deep as it is wide yet avoids coming across as academically lofty. A simple listen, plumbing deep depths and espousing profound truths! It has changed my life and thoughts already in the mere few days it has consumed my ears. I found myself spontaneously weeping at various times as I was brought to ponder the abounding mercy, kindness, compassion, and love of our God.
I struggle with knowing and receiving the glory of God’s “hesed” and goodness in my life at times, though I am quick to see it in the lives of others, and through this study, I have begun to cry out “show me Your glory, teach me Your ways, that I may declare Your goodness!”

Thank you for this rich rewarding book. I feel as though it has set me on a direction of a prolonged study of this word and reality in my own life, and I can only know I will be the better for it!

This would provide great material for a bible study/church class, and have already considered using it in one!
Thank you!
