He Is Named... | Sermon Series

Our names are important. They identify and mark us. Our names are what people shout out when they see us across the parking lot. Our names tell the world who we are and who we’re not. There is one name which is most important to us as Christians - Jesus – who is of course the one whose birth we prepare once again to celebrate on Christmas.

Jesus’s earliest disciples sought to answer the questions: Who is He? And what should we call Him? They looked to the prophets of old– like Isaiah – hoping to find the answers. And in Isaiah’s words they found what they were after – the promise of a Messiah who they believed to be Jesus. And they found names for Him too: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father and Prince of Peace.

This Advent (borrowing from the work of theologian Walter Breugamann’s terrific book “Names for the Messiah”*) we will look at each of these names, week by week, and discover just how perfectly named Jesus is – and how good and different and fulfilling life can be when we are identified by His name.
