Inexpressible

Hesed and the Mystery of God's Lovingkindness

By: Michael Card

Narrated by: Michael Card

God's identity is beyond what we could ever fully express in human words. But Scripture uses one particular word to describe the distinctiveness of God's character: the Hebrew word hesed.

Hesed is a concept so rich in meaning that it doesn't translate well into any single English word or phrase. Michael Card unpacks the many dimensions of hesed, often expressed as lovingkindness, covenant faithfulness, or steadfast love. He explores how hesed is used in the Old Testament to reveal God's character and how he relates to his people. Ultimately, the fullness of hesed is embodied in the incarnation of Jesus. As we follow our God of hesed, we ourselves are transformed to live out the way of hesed, marked by compassion, mercy, and faithfulness.

Discover what it means to be people of an everlasting love beyond words.

Michael Card on a loving God

A carefully thought out study on the nature of God as understood by ancient Hebrew peoples.
Mr. Card is a great student of the Hebrew language and wise teacher showing the listener the consistency of character God displays throughout the Bible.
More than an intellectual exegesis of language Mr Card expresses that character that we’d all do well to emulate in our own personal lives.

amazing hessed

An amazing view of God's hessed in the Bible. It touches your heart, and the narrator is great..

The Character of God

Trouble understanding who God is? Listen to this book. Hesed described in this book is truly a key into understanding the heart of God. A bonus is the author has a soothing voice. This is a book that will reveal more everytime you listen to it.

A much-needed study - an anchor for my soul.

Thankful this book came along in a deeply wounded time in my life. Helped me see the truth of Who God is despite what others do or what I feel worthy of.
