25 Names of Christ for the Season
NAMES OF CHRIST
There are many names of Christ. Each name gives us a different meaning. The total of these names tells us Who Jesus is. He is everything – and more – than these names describe.
For the month of December, you can choose one name on which to focus on each day. Doing this helps our focus be on Christ, our Savior, and not the messiness of this holiday season. There are names for each letter of the alphabet. Most letters have more than one name. Choose the name of that letter that resonates most with you.
Let this be an Advent meditation for each day of December – all the way from the first day to the day after Christmas.
