Monthly Theme Packet
Living the Questions Monthly Theme Packet Each month, our church gathers around a monthly theme and practice to guide our congregational life: worship, small groups, religious education, justice, and classes. Use these readings for reflection around the dinner table, in your own prayer practice, alone or with others. If you are interested in a monthly Sharing Circle, contact: Rev. Luke Stevens-Royer [email protected] or 651.426.2369 Theme for March: God : the practice of naming Questions What does the word "god" mean to you? What past experiences have you had with traditional "god" language? What can you say about the "god" you don't believe in? What possibilities might there be in an expansive understanding of god for you (god, goddess, spirit, wisdom, non-gendered, beyond naming, etc.)? What language do you use to name experiences of mystery, wonder, and awe? Quotations “Where is the door to God? In the sound of a barking dog. In the ring of a hammer. In a drop of rain. In the face of everyone I see.” - Hafiz, Sufi Muslim Mystic “Faith consists in being vitally concerned with that ultimate reality to which I give the symbolical name of God. Whoever reflects earnestly on the meaning of life is on the verge of an act of faith.” - Paul Tillich “We do not want merely to see beauty... we want something else which can hardly be put into words- to be united with the beauty we see, to pass into it, to receive it into ourselves, to bathe in it, to become part of it.

The Shekinah Blessing for the Home
1 The Shekinah Blessing for the Home Although there are many processes for this Blessing, we will be using this version because it serves our purposes best. These are the instructions as the Angel Michael has given them to me. We will be doing this on Saturday after sundown in keeping with Hebrew tradition. This blessing is used to bring good fortune, health, as well as adding an extra 10 years to one’s lifespan. Our purpose in using this is to prepare ourselves by raising our vibration with the Blessing of the Shekinah in our homes. Michael and I understand that doing this every Saturday may be a problem for some. If so, then do it twice a month. If that is too much, then do it at least once a month between now and the time we meet at the next Conference. These are the things you will need. You can find these items on the website store here A charcoal burner with self-lighting charcoal and a 2ml bottle of the I Am oil. An ancient lamp candle and one votive candle. To stick candles may be substituted. One Shekinah flame and one Metatron flame. The Shekinah fork and the Metatron fork One 2ml Shekinah oil. One white hand towel or cloth large enough to place on your head and cover your eyes. Two loaves of bread, olive oil or butter and some grated Parmesan cheese. French or Italian bread is suggested; however for smaller groups the loaves of bread as you would use to make hero sandwiches will work.

EL, ELOAH: God "Mighty, Strong, Prominent"
EL, ELOAH: God "mighty, strong, prominent" (Nehemiah 9:17; Psalm 139:19) – etymologically, El appears to mean “power,” as in “I have the power to harm you” (Genesis 31:29). El is associated with other qualities, such as integrity (Numbers 23:19), jealousy (Deuteronomy 5:9), and compassion (Nehemiah 9:31), but the root idea of “might” remains. ELOHIM: God “Creator, Mighty and Strong” (Genesis 17:7; Jeremiah 31:33) – the plural form of Eloah, which accommodates the doctrine of the Trinity. From the Bible’s first sentence, the superlative nature of God’s power is evident as God (Elohim) speaks the world into existence (Genesis 1:1). EL SHADDAI: “God Almighty,” “The Mighty One of Jacob” (Genesis 49:24; Psalm 132:2,5) – speaks to God’s ultimate power over all. ADONAI: “Lord” (Genesis 15:2; Judges 6:15) – used in place of YHWH, which was thought by the Jews to be too sacred to be uttered by sinful men. In the Old Testament, YHWH is more often used in God’s dealings with His people, while Adonai is used more when He deals with the Gentiles. YHWH / YAHWEH / JEHOVAH: “LORD” (Deuteronomy 6:4; Daniel 9:14) – strictly speaking, the only proper name for God. Translated in English Bibles “LORD” (all capitals) to distinguish it from Adonai, “Lord.” The revelation of the name is first given to Moses “I Am who I Am” (Exodus 3:14). This name specifies an immediacy, a presence. Yahweh is present, accessible, near to those who call on Him for deliverance (Psalm 107:13), forgiveness (Psalm 25:11) and guidance (Psalm 31:3).

Song El Shaddai – El Shaddai Is Most Often Translated As "God Almighty
Song El Shaddai – El Shaddai is most often translated as "God Almighty". El-Elyon na Adonai is a combination of two names for God, meaning "God Most High, please my Lord". (The 'ai' in 'Adonai' is a possessive.) Na is a particle of entreaty, translated "please" or "I/we beseech thee", or left untranslated. Erkamka na Adonai is based on Psalm 18:"I love you, my Lord." Psalm 18:1 Possibly - most likely - "kan-naw" is from Exodus 34:14 meaning "jealous" - for you shall not worship any other god, for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God. Immanuel / Emmanuel Did you know that our God, the God of the Bible has many different names? Each one of these is a significant revelation of a particular attribute of His character. As believers we know all these names are fulfilled in one powerful name, the name above all names, the name of Jesus or Yeshua. “Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in Heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” (Philippians 2-9-11) Hallowed be Your name? To hallow a thing is to make it holy or to set it apart to be exalted as being worthy of absolute devotion. To hallow the name of God is to regard Him with complete devotion and loving admiration.

Elohim, Adonai, and Yahweh
The Hebrew Names of God Lesson 1: Elohim, Adonai, and Yahweh I. Elohim, translated “God”, is used over 2,300 times and stresses His power and sovereignty as Creator and Ruler. A. The name Elohim is probably derived from a verb meaning “to be in front or lead”, or perhaps from a noun meaning “strength or power”, thereby describing God as the Strong One or Mighty Leader. B. All other Semitic languages use the singular El, but the Hebrews used the plural ending (-im) as an honorific, intensive, or majestic plural, which allows for additional revelation of the Trinity (cp. Genesis 1:26; Matt. 28:19). C. Elohim denotes God as the First Cause or Creator of all that is, which assumes His power and ability to create—Genesis 1:1; Jonah 1:9. D. Elohim denotes God as the Sovereign Ruler and Judge over all—Deuteronomy 10:14, 17–18. II. Adonai, translated “Lord”, is used over 400 times and stresses His absolute authority. A. The singular noun Adon means lord (over subjects) or master (over servants), both of which stress His absolute authority. B. The intensive or majestic plural ending (-ai) attached to Adon marks Him as “Lord par excellence” or “Lord of all”—Psalm 136:3. C. Adonai denotes God as the One Who justifiably expects obedience—Joshua 5:13–15; Isaiah 6:1–8. III. Yahweh, translated “LORD”, is used over 5,300 times and stresses His eternal presence and commitment to help His people. A. Although the name of Yahweh was used before, its full significance was not revealed until He appeared to Moses in the Burning Bush—Exodus 3:1–15.
