Experience more of God’s power and presence


Sheryl Giesbrecht leads readers to explore
God’s character through His names

What’s in a name? Names are more than groups of letters that represent a person or identify objects. Names are powerful. A person’s character and destiny can be influenced by his or her name. When it comes to God, His attributes and personality support His unique and distinct names.  In Experiencing God Through His Names (Bold Vision Books/June 17, 2016/ISBN: 978-0692743010/$12.99), author Sheryl Giesbrecht leads readers in a study to discover truths about God’s character by a study of His various titles and names.

Understanding that each of God’s names reveals something about His character opens our spiritual eyes to see His perfect purposes and to recognize His commitment to us. If we can grasp the meanings of His names, we can know God more intimately.  Giesbrecht not only covers some of the well-known titles, such as Father, Ancient of Days and “El Shaddai,” but some of the lesser-used designations, including “El Bethel,” “Jehovah Sabaoth” and “Jehovah Maozi.”

Experiencing God Through His Names invites readers to interact with God about the truth behind His names by studying one each day for 31 days. Taking time daily to meditate on one of God’s specific attributes increases the desire for intimacy with Him and will help readers:
  • Understand 31 of God’s names
  • Explain those names to others
  • Worship God using His various names
  • Experience His power in new ways
  • Apply this experience with God to other areas of life

Giesbrecht encourages readers to look at God as vast and expansive as the Grand Canyon — impossible to encompass all the grandeur and nuances in one glance. Studying His names is like examining the beauty and detail of a single snapshot on a postcard. “When we observe one individual name of God at a time and consider the cross section of His personality traits associated with it,” Giesbrecht explains, “we can access strength, wisdom, patience, grace, love and much more of God’s presence for our needs and the needs of others. We can understand the reality of His presence and apply the capability of His character.”

Through this study, readers will be exposed to a more personal view of God as they become better acquainted with Him. Experiencing God Through His Names can strengthen every believer’s walk with God through meditating on His qualities, thus enabling the reader to know Him better, which leads to transformation into a greater likeness of Christ.
