What if every breath you take whispers the name of God? In the premiere episode of our Coffee Talk series, we're tackling humanity's most profound question: Who is God? This isn't just theological theory—it's the foundation that shapes how we understand ourselves and navigate our world.
Diving into Scripture, we explore the fascinating paradox of God's character. How can someone be perfectly just while overflowing with mercy? We unpack this divine tension and how it finds its perfect resolution at the cross, where justice and mercy embrace without compromising either attribute.
Did you know God has a personal name? When Moses encountered the burning bush and asked who he should say sent him, God revealed himself as Yahweh—"I AM WHO I AM." This name, when pronounced without vowels, resembles the sound of breathing, suggesting that every breath connects us to our Creator. Some researchers have even noted intriguing connections between the structure of human DNA and the numerical values of YHWH in Hebrew—as if our very cellular makeup bears the signature of our Maker.
We also confront common misconceptions that distort our understanding of God: the distant creator who remains uninvolved, the harsh judge waiting for us to fail, or the cosmic genie expected to grant our wishes without relationship. Jesus offers the perfect corrective to these false images, showing us exactly what God is like—loving, compassionate, truthful, and self-sacrificing.
Understanding God accurately transforms everything: how we see ourselves, how we face uncertainty, and how we choose to live. If you're feeling distant from God, take heart—He isn't hiding. He's revealed Himself through Scripture, creation, Jesus, and the whispers of your own life experiences.
