For Discussion:For Discussion:
1. What difference does a name make? Why did God place so much emphasis on His name to Moses in Exodus 3?
2. Jesus talked about gathering in His name in Matthew 18:20. How can we be more aware and respectful of the name of Jesus when we gather with other Christians?
3. How does the meditation from the Letter of St. James on pages 358 and 359 of the USCCA challenge you to grow in your reverence for God’s name and holiness of your speech?
