What is God Really Like When I Feel Inadequate?
Brad Carr
Brad shares from Exodus chapters 3 & 4 - Moses’ call at the burning bush in Ex 3-4, when Yahweh reveals his name to Moses. The context is Moses’ deep feelings of inadequacy when Yahweh calls him to lead Israel out of slavery. Yahweh reveals His name to Moses, which means “I am.” It’s a reminder that whenever God calls us to anything, even when we feel inadequate, God is able.
