God’s Name Brand: Humility in a Culture of Self
Episode 56
In a world obsessed with branding, visibility, and self-promotion, what does it mean to live for the name of someone else?
In this episode of The Wisdom Calling Podcast, we explore David’s posture of humility in 2 Samuel 7:18-29 and the awe-filled wonder of Psalm 8. After receiving a covenant promise from God—one that would make his name great—David doesn’t boast. He bows. His response offers a powerful model for modern professionals navigating ambition, identity, and purpose.
Together, we’ll reflect on:
- Why God’s covenant with David was never about David’s merit
- How Psalm 8 reorients our view of ourselves and God’s majesty
- The danger of personal branding in spiritual disguise
- How to audit the story our lives are telling the world
If you’ve ever wrestled with ambition, image, or influence, this episode will challenge and encourage you to embrace the wisdom of humility and live for the One whose name truly matters.
🎧 Tune in now and join the movement to think more critically, live more strategically, and make much of God.
