Have you ever been impatient with God? Have you ever rushed ahead, charting your own course instead of following His lead? Have you ever struggled to trust in his timing and purposes? If so, you’re not alone. Some of the greatest heroes of faith have wrestled with these questions. This Sunday, we’ll explore Abraham’s story and encounter God as El Shaddai—God Almighty. Join us as we discover why God is always worth waiting for and is completely worthy of trust.

From Series: "Hallowed Be Thy Names"

Shakespeare famously asked, “What’s in a name?” Modern culture often answers, “Not much.” Scripture, however, gives a very different answer. In the Old Testament, naming a child was much more than picking a pretty word. A name signified the essence, character, or nature of a person. The same is true of God. Throughout Scripture, God reveals Himself through more than one hundred names and descriptive titles. Each name unveils something of His character, His power, and His faithfulness, often emerging in moments when His people needed Him most. Throughout the rest of the summer, we'll explore eight of these names, discovering how each one helps us know God more deeply and respond to Him with greater love, trust, and reverence.
