S8E4 Jes French + Elohim: The Creator God, Ruler of All Things

This week on The Collected Podcast, Jes is teaching Part 14 of our Names of God series, diving deep into the powerful and foundational name—ELOHIM, The Creator God and Ruler of All Things. As the very first name used for God in Scripture, Elohim reveals His unmatched sovereignty, creative power, and covenant faithfulness. In this episode, we explore the historical and theological significance of Genesis 1, contrasting the biblical creation account with ancient myths to highlight the beauty, order, and intentionality of God’s design. We reflect on how our view of God shapes our lives, and how Elohim’s character—revealed through creation, covenant, and Psalm 68—offers comfort, strength, and purpose. Whether you’re new to this series or have journeyed with us since El Olam in Season 4, this episode invites you to rediscover your value and identity in the One who formed the universe and still speaks life today.
