There are many, many names given to Jesus. Awhile ago, Chris Lousias sent me a listing of some of those names plus Bible references (I would be happy to email the information, if you would like it!). Here are several of them:
 
* Prince of Peace
* Shepherd
* Alpha and Omega
* Light of the World
* King of Kings
* Author of Life
* Bridegroom
* Cornerstone
* Advocate
* Redeemer
 
While we were in Poland, we met Adam who is a drug and alcohol counnselor hired by the ministry with which John and Zaba Crozier are involved.
 
According to Zaba, Adam has an ability to reach out to those who abuse substances, as he too had difficulties in those areas. Adam has found another word in the Bible to describe Jesus:  Friend of Sinners. Adam tells people, "of which I was one of the worst". If Jesus can help Adam to turn his life around and make something of his messed up life, they too can have that hope and help.
 
"He tells anyone who will listen to his story," said Zaba. "His new life impacts those with life's problems.They can see and enjoy a new beginning and a new hope. If Adam can do it with Jesus' help, so can they."
