The Names of God in Jonah and Micah

Questions to Ponder for JONAH:

Read over the list without repeats. What names resonate the most with you? Why? 
What name comforts you? Why? 
What name is difficult or uncomfortable to accept? Why? 
What have you learned about God based on His names? About Jesus? About the Holy Spirit?
