Episode 196: The NAME

Episode 196: The NAME

Author: DJ (David John) July 29, 2025 Duration: 1:06:21
This message is all about the meaning of "the Name of..." in its ancient, Biblical context, understanding. What is it to pray "in the Name of Jesus"? Why do many Christians treat it as some type of formula?Why is His Name so offensive?? Maybe the most critical/important part of this message.

The JOEL 2 GENERATION PODCAST, hosted by DJ (David John), exists for those with a deep, personal hunger for the presence of God, a commitment to His unchanging Word, and a focus on advancing His Kingdom. This isn't about casual religious discussion; it's built on the conviction that a complete Apostolic faith was once delivered to the Church, as referenced in Jude. The core of this podcast is contending for that specific, foundational faith-teaching it, guarding it, and understanding its demands in our current era. DJ explores what it means to be part of the 'Joel 2 Generation' God is summoning now: a faithful and obedient remnant who refuse to settle for spiritual complacency. Listeners will hear a call to pursue everything God intends to release in this unique moment in history. It’s for those who feel a stirring for more than tradition, who desire a faith that is both ancient and urgently contemporary. Each episode delves into scripture and Spirit-led perspective, challenging believers to move beyond surface-level Christianity into a life fully aligned with God's will. The conversation here is direct, rooted in biblical authority, and focused on practical obedience. Tuning in means joining a community dedicated to becoming the people God is raising up for such a time as this-a people defined by their hunger, their fidelity, and their active participation in a divine story much larger than themselves. This is a podcast for the serious, the seeking, and those ready to be part of a generation marked by a wholehearted response.
