Yes, this is a book about God - who he is, who he's not, and the staggering implications of who we are as a result. But no, this is not just "another" book about God.

God Has a Name is shaped around one incredibly important paragraph in Exodus. In the well-known story of Moses interacting with God on Mount Sinai, Moses asks to see God's glory. But what God does - and says - is surprising and relevant for anyone who wants to understand God today.

Comer's fresh voice, creative and contemporary examples, powerful language, and deep respect for the scriptures open up the Bible and the story of God to reveal not only his character but how he interacts with us. And in the end, we will know how to "carry that name" ourselves and represent God in how we live.

For everyone who is trying to understand this God the Bible talks about, the church teaches about, and preachers preach about, this is the place to begin. Ground zero - where God himself tells us who he really is.

Exodus 34:4-7

Prologue: The Gon on Top of the Mountain

1. Yahweh One simple idea that could radically alter how you relate to God

2. Yahweh Why does God need a name in the first place? GOD and the "gods"

3. Compassionate and Gracious God as Father and Mother, and his baseline emotion towards you: mercy

4. Slow to Anger Why we actually crave the wrath of God

5. Abounding in Love and Faithfulness Long obedience in the same direction in an age of instant gratification

6. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished The God who just won't stop until you're completely free

Epilogue: Jealous

Thanks
