Description: To know someone’s name in the ancient world was to know something about that person’s nature and character. By exploring the primary names and titles of Jesus, this unique devotional will draw readers into a deeper, more satisfying relationship with the one who is called Savior, Messiah, and Lord.
Details: The book is quite to the point and very clear and understanding the significant names of Jesus. The perspective is historical and cultural in nature. The language is concise and lucid. It is a great introduction to the MASter without preaching...a great read.

Details: I just gotten hold of this book and I have been blessed doing the devotional each day..It's just a wonderful way to know my Lord better through the names He is known for. as for an earlier review about an error on page 29,
"This is the Prayer she had in her book I believe she meant well, but alas this is an error and we all must be careful especially as writers:
Lord, how strange it must have been to enter the world as the only sighted man and to encounter a world so enshrouded that people could not see your light.
Oh they saw the light but there were some that desired the darkness more than the light.
When you are in a dark room you can't help but notice when a light gets turned on my friend or should I say thee light comes walking in!"
Unfortunately,the reviewer did not mentioned what the writer wrote just a few lines away...."Forgive me for my self imposed blindness" which is so true..Many people in days of Jesus, did not see Him as the Saviour because they just simply refuse to believe for various reasons. It was self imposed unbelief...I believe the reviewer holds a high esteem for our Lord but just like writers, reviewers must also be careful to first understand what we are reviewing by reading carefully.

Details: I'm in my second week of reading this book. I feel it has been a great addition to my time with the Lord. I believe studying the names of Jesus has been bringing me closer to the Lord especially being that my Pastor just started a series on the Names of God on Sundays. Then I got to Page 29 today and started to pray the prayer she had and God interrupted me with some verses so I looked them up John 3:19,20 -
19 And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed.
This is the Prayer she had in her book I believe she meant well, but alas this is an error and we all must be careful especially as writers:
Lord, how strange it must have been to enter the world as the only sighted man and to encounter a world so enshrouded that people could not see your light.
Oh they saw the light but there were some that desired the darkness more than the light.
When you are in a dark room you can't help but notice when a light gets turned on my friend or should I say thee light comes walking in!
