Description
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.
