Hey, this is Randy and I'm glad that you are planning on walking with us every day as we explore many different names for God from now through Christmas. Our daily blog is called "Hello, my name is God." If you haven't registered for this blog yet, please take a minute and do so now. Did you do it? Good!
As you probably know, yesterday I preached the first message of an eight week series called "Indescribable" at The Church at Ross Station in Hoover, Alabama. If you missed it, over the next 24 hours, it should be posted to our podcast site that you will find by visiting www.rossstation.org. This message kicked off the series in a powerful way. From now through December 21st we will look at other names for God such as Adonai, Jehovah Rophe, Jehovah Jireh, Jehovah Rohi, Jehovah Shammah, Jehovah Nissi, and of course, the Name that is above every name...Jesus! To follow up each message, you will be able to visit this blog and read devotions about the name of God that we studied in the message the previous Sunday. Some of the devotions will be words from famous authors and theologians, while the majority will be written by our very own members at Ross Station. We hope that this blog and this series will be a great blessing to you and that you will be challenged to a deeper walk with the Lord throughout this holiday season.
Would you take a moment and pray right now that God will speak to your heart and that He would use His Name as a means to challenge and change you. God bless you as you start this journey with us. Whether you are a member of Ross Station, a friend or family member of one of our folks, or perhaps you just stumbled across this blog by chance, we are glad you are here. If you are anywhere near Hoover, Alabama on a Sunday, please be our guest at Ross Station. We'd love for you to be a part of the incredible work that God is doing here. It is truly indescribable.

Matt and I have really been looking forward to this series. One question I have: is there a name for God as Creator? I've not seen it anywhere. By the way, love this format...thanks for being so creative!
" bereshith bara elohim hashamayim vie haeretz" . This is the first verse in the Bible- Genesis 1:1 " In the beginning (bereshith), He created (bara), namely God (elohim), the heavens (hashamayim) and (vie) the earth (haeretz).
Michelle "bara" is used exclusively with God. God creates out of nothing. Man on forms or fashions what God has already created.
Hey Everyone! I posted a comment earlier this morning, but for some reason, it posted in another place. I'm really glad that you have joined us on this site today and already there is great conversation going on. I really am looking forward to these next 8 weeks together. I appreciate Becky Holmes for putting this blogsite together and to several of you who have written or are going to write a devotion for an upcoming week. If you would like to write a devotion, please email me at randy@rossstation.org and let me know. Have a great day and don't forget to BREATHE!!! Get it? Love you. Randy
