Discover Who You Are & Whose You Are: Listen to the “Your Secret Name” Chat with Kary Oberbrunner

Feb 27

Recently, callers from four continents joined Zondervan author Kary Oberbrunner for a conversational chat, as Kary helped listeners gain greater clarity about who we are and whose we are through sharing truths from his book Your Secret Name.

A pastor formerly addicted to self-injury, Kary was honest about how many of us let pain define our lives. But he also traced the hopeful, transformational journey in which we can discover our Secret Name.

During the Call Listeners Discovered:

The Given Names that can burden us, both negative (i.e., failure, self-injurer) and positive (i.e., athlete, brain)
How men and women differ in their strategies to win at the “Name Game”
An ancient promise which reveals that you have a new name written on a white stone
How to overcome the chronic personal pain in your life
How to tap into your true potential and step into the destiny your Creator designed for you
A community who believes in you and shares your passion for personal development

Listen to the chat

Really Living: Kary Oberbrunner’s New Book “Your Secret Name”

Sep 17

Do you know someone like this?

[Someone who has] a restorative quality about them. Rather than taking energy from others, they’re so full of life that they give energy to others.

And who gave them permission to dance while the rest of us remain frozen in time?

How do they know what part to play?

They know who they are.

They’ve learned their Secret Name.

Kary’s book contains a lot of valuable counsel about a biblical view of identity, authenticity and self-esteem. I especially appreciated his discussion questions from chapter five, “Impostor Syndrome.” Take a look:
