Names of God

Written By:
 Sam Hargreaves
Themes: praise, celebration, peace, meditation
Type: Powerpoint
Bible Refs:

 This PowerPoint of various biblical names of God was made for Youthwork the Conference.  It is designed to help people reflect on the varied sides of God's attributes and character.  It could be used with live or recorded music underneath as a meditation during a worship time, or as the opening of a service.  We have also used it in a home group situation, leaving space at the end for people to pray in response to the names which spoke to them.

Sorry I've been a while in responding to this. Our DJ at Youthwork did a live mix over the visuals, using samples from the main speakers, but also bits of 'My King' by SM Lockridge.

I'm afraid we don't have it for download (although we are working on getting some stuff from Steve), but you can download the SM Lockridge prayer (with or without a backing track) from http://www.churchnext.net/resourcing_free_up_indescribable.shtml

This is a great resource and with music background it really added something to our Lent prayer session. Thanks for making these resources available.

Hoping to use the names to inspire Advent cries, praying through the Bible for Biblefresh, with powerpoint and background music as we pray. Thank you for the inspiration - the pictures are more 'edgy' than the usual 'inspirational' scenes!
