Definition
Religious groups within a faith tradition, or the face values of currency, stamps, or securities.
Etymology
From Latin 'denominare' meaning 'to name', from 'de-' (completely) + 'nominare' (to name). Originally meant simply 'a naming' but evolved to mean categories or classes of things sharing the same name or value.
Kelly Says
The word 'denominations' reveals how humans organize both the sacred and the secular through naming and categorization. Whether sorting believers into Baptist, Methodist, and Presbyterian, or organizing money into ones, fives, and twenties, we use the same linguistic tool to bring order to complexity.
