N E W E P I S O D E ! 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.

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.
