Understanding God: Perceptions and Influences

Do we project our own ideas onto God? In this first of two conversations with Ger Jones of Vintage Church LA, John Mark and Ger explore the significance of God having a name and how God's self-disclosure often contradicts our assumptions. They challenge us to re-examine and adjust our implicit knowledge of God by reckoning with God's character revealed in Scripture.

You can read more in the expanded hardcover edition of John Mark’s book God Has a Name, now available wherever books are sold.
