What’s in a Name?

Posted on October 23 2016, delivered by Rev. Douglas Denton

In the book of Genesis, God granted Jacob a new name. God’s name is then part of Jacob’s new name, “Isra-el”. For the rest of his life, he will be carrying that name with him. When we allow God into our lives, we too are challenged to remember what a great responsibility it is to live up to God’s name.
