    How would you respond if God called your name not once, but twice? In the Bible, God calls plenty of people often by name, but I’ve only found seven times where God calls out someone’s name twice in a row. In each instance, what follows is a life-changing encounter with the God of creation.

    When God Calls Your Name… Twice: Saul/Paul Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 9/4/2016 After church one Sunday, a pastor stood at the front of the church greeting people as they left.

    The Lord Jesus went out of His way to bring the Gospel to an anonymous woman. Her life was one of sin and isolation from others. Despite her attitude and resistance, she was won over to the grace and mercy of God. We are to follow His example.

    No one is to be neglected or avoided when it comes to presenting the Good News of salvation found only in the Lord Jesus Christ (John 14:6; Acts 4:12; 1 John 2:1-2). As we read through the fourth chapter of John's Gospel, we see how Jesus went out of HIs way to give this offer of redemption ...read more
