The first of Moore's five faith statements — 'God is who He says He is' — sounds simple until you begin to trace what God actually says about Himself and measure your daily life against it.
Discussion Questions
7 questions1.What is the first of Moore's five statements of faith, and why does she begin here? Why does our belief about *who God is* have to come before our belief about *what God can do*?
2.When God tells Moses 'I AM WHO I AM' at the burning bush, He is making a claim unlike anything a human being can make. Moore unpacks the radical self-existence and self-sufficiency implied in that name. How does God's 'I AM-ness' relate to His trustworthiness?
3.Think about the names and attributes of God you know well — Jehovah Jireh (Provider), El Roi (the God who sees), Shepherd, Father. Pick one that you say you believe but find hardest to live out of. What makes it hard?
a.What circumstance in your life most directly contradicts that name of God — or seems to?
b.What would it look like to hold that name of God over that circumstance this week?
