As a Christian, you know God by many names. Heavenly Father, Creator, Yahweh, and so many more. But do you know Him by the characteristics of His biblical names? Dig into His names to find peace from the worries of the world, and hold onto His name in times of hardship and anxiety.
“I created this study as a meditation on the various names and characteristics of God to deepen your understanding of Him and your identity as His child. The names of God reveal important aspects of His character as well as how He relates to you—His beloved child—and how He offers the peace we all crave so much.”
