The Hebrew term means “the Lord is my banner.” In battle, a banner was a rallying point, a symbol. As we open a new series looking at the meanings behind some of the names of God, this provides a good starting point—and a reminder that we are never alone.

Part 6: Shepherd
November 13, 2022 • Pastor Luke Uran • Psalm 23
As one of the most familiar passages in the whole Bible, Psalm 23 is often rightly read at funerals as a source of comfort. But there’s much more here, if we take a little time to understand sheep and shepherds—and why this is such a beautiful reminder of who God is.
Part 4: Abba-Father
October 30, 2022 • Pastor Luke Uran • Galatians 3:23—4:9
The Hebrew term "Abba" helps us understand God’s love as a father’s love for his child. Even if we have had a negative experience with an earthly father, this understanding can change the way we pray and relate to our Heavenly Father.
