in a name

Why did you choose to call your blog "extra/ordinary aaron"?

Good question.
What is in a name?
Did you guess I might have an answer?
If you have forty-four minutes, then you can hear - a lot - about what is in this name. Preached back in April, Ordinary to Extraordinary is about the Twelve Disciples, but applies to Christ followers today. Just like you & me.
You see.
On my own I am.
Exceedingly plain. Tremendously weak. Ordinary in extra degrees.
Yet through Christ.
I can be.
Exceptionally graced. Completely empowered. Thoroughly gifted.
Extraordinary.
