Hello Dr Bill!
I am currently taking your ASL lessons online @ Lifeprint.com.
I am hearing. I'm learning ASL for church. We are starting a
ministry for the Deaf & I felt the Lord put it on my heart to be a
part of this ministry...
I have a question, when talking about God being the creator of all
things how would you sign the word creator?
Again thank you so much & I am looking forward to doing the rest of
your lessons.
Have a blessed day!

Tanya,
Hello :)
I've always just signed "MAKE" to mean "create." Thus you
can sign MAKE-PERSON to mean "maker" which in context could be
understood as meaning "the creator."
See: MAKE
See: PERSON
Note: Often during high speed signing of compounds movement of one
or both of the signs is reduced.
So you might see CREATOR done using only one twisting movement prior
to doing the PERSON sign.
