Matthew 3:13-17, Isaiah 42:1-9 | Names often point to who we are, or where we’ve come from. Of all the names that we might attach to ourselves, or that others might attach to us, it is solely in our name as “beloved” of God that we find our identity and our purpose. As Christ was publicly affirmed and commissioned in his baptism, we, too, now, are affirmed in our identity and sent to live into this name that we have been given.
