In That’s Not Your Name, Pastor Vince Stegall brings a powerful message from Genesis 35, where Rachel names her son Benoni, “son of my sorrow,” but Jacob renames him Benjamin, “son of my right hand.” It is a striking picture of how God still speaks identity over lives marked by pain.
This sermon confronts the false labels many carry from failure, shame, grief, trauma, and fear. Through Jacob’s return to Bethel, listeners are called back to the altar, back to surrender, and back to the voice of God that restores what pain tried to redefine.
God is still a name changer. What others spoke over you does not have the final word. In Christ, old identities can be buried, hope can rise again, and promise can be born from places once marked by sorrow.
