We find different names for God in the Holy Bible. Through His names we will find the character of God. All the names used for God are included in the Bible. Popular Bible teacher Melissa Spoelstra has compiled a 6-week Bible study to help you understand some of these names for God. If you are new to the faith or a long-time Christian, you will find this Bible study a helpful experience.

Know God Better Through the Study of His Names

When you study the names of God from the Bible, you are learning the meaning of each name. Both Hebrew Old Testament and Greek New Testament reveal the character of God- by His names. Spend a few minutes each day as you learn about God.

In The Names of God, popular Bible teacher, speaker, and author Melissa Spoelstra leads you on an exploration of the many names of our triune God—from Elohim and Yahweh to Abba, Jesus, Holy Spirit, and others. As you spend six weeks studying these names, you will not only learn more about God, but you also will know Him better—because through the discovery of God’s names, you will discover Him.

Today’s culture and others’ views, even those of other Christians, can present a distorted view of God. Some suggest God exudes qualities He does not possess such as being unloving or apathetic toward His creation. In a world where we find people creating God in their own image, studying God’s names can remind us that we are created in His. In fact, one of the best ways to know God’s true character and grow closer to Him is to study His names.

As women study the names of God, their ideas about God will become more grounded in what His names tell them, and thus more personal, allowing a greater trust in Him to share the details of their lives. Whether having walked with God for many years or just starting out in a relationship with Him, by the end of this study women will not only know more about God but will know Him better—because through the discovery of God’s names, they will discover Him!

Components for this six-week Bible study, each available separately, include a Participant Workbook, a Leader Guide, DVD with six 25-minute segments (with closed captioning), and a boxed Leader Kit containing one of each component. Available at Cokesbury, Amazon, ChristianBooks and online stores.
