Synopsis

We all have onea€“a Secret Name that is. The Bible tells us so. Yet few of us know ours. Ignorantly, wea€™re stuck, caught up in the a€œName Game.a€Using the story of the biblical patriarch Jacob as a backdrop, author Kary Oberbrunner calls us to stop accepting the worlda€™s labels and start wrestling with God to discover our true identity. Jacob spent years living out the meaning of his earthly name: a€œdeceiver.a€ Caught up in pretending to be someone he wasna€™t, he was unaware that God would build a nation through him, unaware that Jesus would be one of his descendents, unaware of the lands he would inherit. Then he heard God speak his true name and the future God had for him unfolded. Oberbrunner reminds us that wea€™ll be unable to discern what God wants to build through us until we discover how God has seen us all along. In Your Secret Name, readers will find the courage to abandon what they know in order to become who they were born to be.

This was...disappointing. The title says "DISCOVERING who God created you to be," which led me to expect an emphasis on what one can do to find their secret name and recognize it when it appears. Instead, most of the book bounces between a rambling account of everything that went wrong in his youth......more

Goodreads review by Rick on January 04, 2020

A worthy addition to the genre of Christian motivational self-help books. The 3 stars reflects my particular stage of life more than the book itself. Had I read this 20 or 30 years ago it would likely have been a 5 star book. I've been following Kary online for years now and am finally getting aroun......more

Your secret name has opened my eyes to who God has created me to be. I am slowly moving away from the lies I have believed about myself for years and am moving closer to embracing God love for me and allowing Him to open my eyes. Excellent book!......more
