The Names That Hold You: A Women’s Bible Study and Devotional to Help You Come Close to the Names of God, the Trinity, and Who You Are in Christ

What changes when you stop merely learning about God and begin knowing Him through the names and character He has revealed?

The Names That Hold You is a deeply biblical women’s Bible study and Christian devotional for women who want to understand the names of God, the Trinity, the character of God, and their identity in Christ with greater clarity and confidence.

Beginning with Hagar’s encounter with El Roi, the God who sees, this Scripture-centered journey explores what God’s names, titles, and biblical descriptions reveal about who He is and what that truth means in the life you are actually living.

Through thoughtful Bible study, personal reflection, prayer, and practical application, you will explore Elohim, YHWH, El Roi, El Shaddai, YHWH Yireh, Father, Jesus, Immanuel, the Good Shepherd, the Holy Spirit our Helper, and the Spirit of Truth.

Along the way, you will discover how knowing God more deeply can reshape the way you face:

feeling unseen, overlooked, or rejected

waiting and uncertainty

guilt, shame, and past mistakes

loneliness and difficult seasons

comparison and questions of identity

burnout, weakness, and overwhelming responsibility

important decisions and conflicting advice

spiritual discernment and manipulative religious pressure

calling, purpose, relationships, and spiritual growth

This is more than a study of Hebrew names or Christian terminology. It carefully distinguishes between God’s personal names, biblical titles, descriptions, and metaphors, while offering an accessible understanding of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit without reducing the mystery of the Trinity to confusing analogies.

Each chapter combines Scripture in context with meaningful reflection, Bible study questions, prayer, and devotional application. A detailed question-and-answer section also addresses common questions about YHWH and Jehovah, Abba, El Shaddai, Jehovah Jireh, praying in Jesus’ name, the Holy Spirit, God’s provision, suffering, and the Trinity.

For the woman who wants a Christian Bible study about the names of God, a devotional for spiritual growth, or a deeper understanding of who she is in Christ, The Names That Hold You offers a warm invitation to move beyond information about God and into deeper relationship with Him.

You may begin wanting to know the names of God.

You may finish realizing that the God behind those names has known you all along.
