A book of 400 pages published by Ancient Faith Publishing, based on Hopko's Ancient Faith Radio podcast of the same name (2009-2010). The publisher describes it as meditations on more than fifty names and titles given to Jesus in the Bible, each exploring what the name reveals about the Son of God, his part in salvation, and how a reader may come to know him. Like the podcast, it is spoken-style teaching rooted in Scripture and the Church's worship, from the last years of Hopko's long work as a broadcaster after his retirement from St Vladimir's Seminary.
