We do this by cultivating a different kind of leadership — personal leadership. Our Bridgepoint initiative will provide opportunities and environments to help you successfully balance your time, relationships, and work by developing an integrated life and worldview.

 

MAX LUCADO’S CHRISTMAS
"Just Call Me Jesus"
with Max Lucado

Many of the names in the Bible that refer to our Lord are nothing less than palatial and august: Son of God, The Lamb of God, The Light of the World, The Resurrection and the Life, The Bright and Morning Star, He that Should Come, Alpha and Omega.

But there is one name which recalls a quality of the Master that bewildered and compelled those who knew Him. It reveals a side of Him that, when recognized, is enough to make you fall on your face. It is not too small, nor is it too grand. It is a name that fits like the shoe fit Cinderella’s foot: Jesus.

In Jesus' biography, it’s His most common name — used almost six hundred times. And a common name it was. Jesus is the Greek form of Joshua, Jeshua, and Jehoshua — all familiar Old Testament names. There were at least five high priests known as Jesus. The writings of the historian Josephus refer to about twenty people called Jesus.

The New Testament speaks of Jesus Justus, the friend of Paul, and the sorcerer of Paphos is called Bar-Jesus. Some manuscripts give Jesus as the first name of Barabbas, who was released by Pontius Pilot. “Which would you like me to release to you — Jesus Barabbas or Jesus called the Messiah?”

In this special Christmas presentation by Max Lucado, we'll hear how the divine Jesus and the human Jesus can impact our daily lives.
