What Day Is It?<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

The Burning Question:<\/span><\/p>\n

What is your most favorite Christmas tradition you do every year?<\/p>\n

It\u2019s that time when we start to see hospitals release their lists of the most popular baby names of the year. I happened to stumble upon a few of those lists yesterday and some really cute names have risen to the top of the lists.<\/span><\/p>\n

For instance, a hospital in Waterloo reported that for 2024, the five most popular names for baby girls were <\/span>Lainey, Nora, Adeline, Ava and Emerson. Their most popular names for boys born this year were Ezra, Theodore, Emmett, Henry and Bennett. <\/span>Nationally, it looks like Olivia is the most popular girl’s name in the United States for the fourth year running. For the boys, the name Noah is taking the top spot for the second year in a row.<\/span><\/p>\n

I believe names are important, and they especially were in Bible times. A person\u2019s name revealed not only their identity but also secured family ties, reflected God\u2019s purpose for a person\u2019s life and communicated God\u2019s message to others. As God sent His Son into the world, unveiling His name was a critical part of the plan.<\/span><\/p>\n

In Luke chapter 1, Mary is told by the angel Gabriel she would give birth to a son and to call him Jesus. <\/span>As Matthew’s Gospel shares, an angel appears to Joseph and says: “You shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.” (Matthew 1:21) The name Jesus means Savior.\u00a0 Best baby name ever.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Bible Quiz:<\/span><\/p>\n

Question:\u00a0 Who ran to meet the Lord on the plains of Mamre?<\/p>\n

Answer:\u00a0 Abraham\u00a0 (Genesis 18:1-2)<\/p>\n
