What you believe about God sets the foundation of the person you will become.

In God Has a Name, pastor and New York Times bestselling author John Mark Comer invites you to rethink many of the prevalent myths and misconceptions about God and weigh them against what God actually tells us about himself. After all, what you believe about God will ultimately shape the type of person you become.

We all live at the mercy of our ideas, and nowhere is this more true than our ideas about God. The problem is many of our ideas about God are wrong. Not all wrong, but wrong enough to form our souls in detrimental and disheartening ways.

God Has a Name is a simple yet profound guide to understanding God in a new light--focusing on what God says about himself in the Bible. This one shift has the potential to radically alter how you relate to God, not as a doctrine, but as a relational being who responds to you in an elastic, back-and-forth way.

John Mark Comer takes you line by line through Exodus 34:6-8--Yahweh's self-revelation on Mount Sinai, one of the most quoted passages in the Bible. Along the way, Comer addresses some of the most profound questions he came across as he studied these noted lines in Exodus, including:

• Why do we feel this gap between us and God?
• Could it be that a lot of what we think about God is wrong? Not all wrong, but wrong enough to mess up how we relate to him?
• What if our "God" is really a projection of our own identity, ideas, and desires?
• What if the real God is different, but far better than we could ever imagine?

No matter where you are in your spiritual journey, God Has a Name invites you to step into a fresh and biblically rooted vision of who God is that has the potential to alter your life with God and shape who you become.

Rediscover your purpose in life and your passion for life.

In Garden City, join pastor and New York Times bestselling author John Mark Comer as you explore the Bible's vision for work, rest, and living fully human.

The mantra for many in our culture is that we work to live. People aim to make as much money as possible, in as little time as possible, with as little effort as possible, so they can get off work and go do something else.

What a miserable way to live.

No wonder we are so unhappy, grouchy, and angsty. We've lost something central to who we are as humans.

In the Bible, the book of Genesis paints a very different picture of what it means to be truly human—we don't work to live; we live to work. From the very first pages of the Bible, human beings were made to rule over and care for the earth. By calling and by commission, humanity was created to do good work. In Garden City, you will explore this biblical vision and discover that, ultimately, what you do matters just as much as who you are. Along the way, you will explore important and practical questions:

• Does God care where I work?
• Does he have a clear direction for me?
• How can I create a rhythm for work and a practice of rest?

This book isn't about how to get ahead in your career or spruce up your resume—it's about working, resting, and living a full and satisfying existence. It's about spiritual life invading all of life.

Discover wisdom from Scripture that will help you navigate the confusing waters of love and relationships in today’s world.

In Loveology, pastor and New York Times bestselling author John Mark Comer helps you understand what the Bible has to say about sexuality, romance, singleness, and what it means to be male and female.

In the beginning, God created Adam. Then he made Eve. And ever since we've been picking up the pieces. Love and hate. Marriage and divorce. Sexuality and adultery. Romance and heartache. Love is the source of our highest highs and lowest lows. We see the messiness of love all around us and are left with so many questions about what love really is.

Amid all this confusion and pain, Loveology offers you a fresh, hopeful, biblical perspective on love that starts with marriage and works backward. Comer helps you understand what is right in male/female relationships—what God intended in the Garden. And about what is wrong—the fallout in a post-Eden world. Comer shows how when you let Scripture transform your understanding of love it will transform your relationships and your life.

This book brings honesty, wit, and compassion to one of life’s most beautiful and challenging areas and ends with a raw, uncut, anything-goes Q and A dealing with the most asked questions about sexuality and relationships.

Loveology is for singles, engaged couples, and the newly married—both inside and outside the church—who want to learn what the Bible has to say about sexuality and relationships. If you want to ask the why questions and get intelligent, nuanced answers that are rooted in the Scriptures, this book is for you.
