While God goes ahead of us in evangelism, he also sends us ahead of him in evangelism. Jamin talks about this dynamic while he reflects on the passage of Jesus sending the 72 disciples out ahead of him.

For this Pentecost Sunday, Jamin tells many stories from his life with his college mentor Ken Brewer, who passed away this week. Ken operated as Jamin's own personal Pentecost event and changed the direction of his faith and pneumatology forever.

The Kingdom of Heaven works differently than the Kingdoms of Earth, and King Jesus gives us Heaven's disruptive strategies so we might subversively install his kingdom in our midst.

In Numbers 9, it's pretty clear that Israel didn't move unless God's cloud or fire led them somewhere else. But in Numbers 10, a team of Israelites sought a place to go next, and the cloud went with them. What do we do with these opposing stories? Jamin offers a suggestion based on the dynamic found throughout the rest of the Bible and in our own lives.

Few topics are messier than that of Christians and politics. Depending on what part of the Bible you read, you'll be told to listen to everything the government says or to challenge it prophetically. When do we challenge? How do we challenge? Why do we challenge? As Jamin wraps up his master's degree on theology and social justice, he uses 1 Peter as a springboard to look at the conversation from...

Sometimes you have an experience of God that is so great that everything changes and revolves around that moment. Moses had plenty of such moments, but we often reflect on his experience on the mountaintop with God. In this message, Jamin gets into several topics related to cosmology, spirituality, theosis, the image of God, spiritual gifts, and, most importantly, the intimacy of God.

God is an artisan. When he told Moses to create a Tabernacle, he had very specific symbols, materials, and objects he wanted integrated into the space with different meanings attached. We, too, create atmospheres with the objects we have. In this message, Jamin talks about some of the objects he has and creates that help him focus on Jesus and engage in worship.

There's a strange story in the Old Testament where Moses brings water out of a rock. This turns into an even stranger story where that rock is said to move around and be Jesus himself. What's going on here? Jamin gives some insight into these passages and why they matter today.

Jamin, Aimee, and Kyle answer questions related to healing after preaching their messages at Reveal.

While we are supernaturalists who believe in healing, we are also naturalists who recognize we will all die this side of the resurrection. That being said, how do we die well? We asked Kyle Herrick, a local hospice chaplain, to educate us on this topic.

In this special message at Reveal Jackson, Aimee Coolbaugh shares about how healing ministry can go wrong.

In this teaching, Jamin engages the crowd at Reveal Jackson by having them read through healing stories in the gospels. Together, they tallied up the common themes they saw so that they could learn how Jesus healed. NOTE: Apologies, as our mic does not pick up comments from the crowd.

In this Easter message, Jamin pulls out a whiteboard to take us on a tour of the cosmos and explain how Jesus has become king of the whole thing.

The theme of God's kingdom arises throughout the entirety of the Bible. It is what God wants to install on the earth, is installing on the earth, and will install on the earth. But in this age, God's descendants often run up against the descendants of the serpent, who is trying to build his own kingdom through his own descendants.

We're often so lost in the wonder of the fiery bush that we don't notice how noncompliant Moses was. His combativeness caused God to offer him a concession that would complicate his future.

When Jacob goes to bless his grandsons, he flips his hands around in the tradition of the men of his line. Despite his many misunderstandings of God, he has come to learn something about him: God tends to do things differently.

We weren't really expecting the messiah to be an exorcist, but he was. Why did demons listen to him and why were they afraid of him? Jamin offers some ideas.

Hebrews gives us a long list of stories of Bible characters who saw miracles as they stayed faithful to God. Jamin shares some of these stories and more throughout history that have happened as people have remained faithful.

There is a heavenly temple and an earthly temple. The high priests were only allowed into the inner parts of the earthly temple, but Jesus walked into both. What does this mean for him and for us?

“A little while, and you will see me no longer; and again a little while, and you will see me.” In this message, Jamin speaks on how Jesus’ phrasing here worked on his heart.

It's hard to narrow the word glory down because it has a lot of meanings in the Bible. In this message, Jamin works off Matthew Bates' book, "Why the Gospel?," to describe God's glory in a way that implies fame. From this point of view, you actually have the ability to increase God's glory. Jamin explains what he means.

In Ephesians 5, Paul talks about light, darkness, and our place in it. Jamin dives into this theme on both a scientific and spiritual level.

God loves us just as we are. This is good theology. God wants us to grow. This is also good theology. In this message, Jamin identifies this dynamic and talks about how it played out in his life in a powerful way.

Mythology is a great genre of literature for telling true stories that didn't always happen—or at least didn't happen that way exactly. In this message, Jamin takes a look at the story of Noah's flood and offers a mythological perspective of the tale.

Many people are so focused on debating if the creation story happened literally or not and miss the many important statements it has to make about our identity and place in the world. Jamin hits on seven important points that get buried under the debate.
