The Name We Were Given Acoustic Version

inspired by Doctrine and Covenants 163:1-2a: 1. “Community of Christ,” your name, given as a divine blessing, is your identity and calling. If you will discern and embrace its full meaning, you will not only discover your future, you will become a blessing to the whole creation. Do not be afraid to go where it beckons you to go. 2 a. Jesus Christ, the embodiment of God’s shalom, invites all people to come and receive divine peace in the midst of the difficult questions and struggles of life. Follow Christ in the way that leads to God’s peace and discover the blessings of all of the dimensions of salvation.“ The Name We Were Given” is Temple Spiral’s song about identity, calling, and the sacred worth that comes before every label the world places on us. This version is a stripped down acoustic version. It asks what remains when inherited expectations, shame, and old definitions fall away. Beneath all of it is a deeper name: beloved, called, and claimed by Christ.
