Episode 145: The Changing of Names
On Sunday 4/23/23, Antioch Outpost officially became the new name of what had been previously called The Church at Winder for forty years. In Scripture, when God ordained a dramatic shift in identity, covenant, and purpose, He would sometimes change the very name of the person with whom He was working. Name changes in Scripture are very significant. This episode communicates the reason why Jeff and his co-leaders committed to a new name to the church they serve. Maybe more importantly for the listener, Jeff highlights an obscure verse in the Book of Revelation that indicates that all Christians have a new name awaiting them at the end of the age. Now is a great season to consider if you and your church are operating under a name that clearly expresses what God is doing in the earth. Alignment and identity are important. As you listen, consider what God is speaking over you.
