1208PODCAST

Jamin preaches Mary's love for Jesus from birth to life to death. He also talks about how the miraculous can sometimes come with great pain and confusion.

In the chaos of the first Christmas, Mary and Joseph faced overwhelming challenges—unexpected journeys, divine interruptions, and unimaginable responsibilities. Yet, in the midst of it all, they found joy by following the signs and wonders God placed before them. In this episode, we explore how their story invites us to trust in God’s guidance, even when life feels unpredictable, and how the journey toward joy often requires faith in the miraculous.

When we look at the themes that Mary sang about in her Magnificat, we realize partially where Jesus' heart for prophetic justice came from.

In this message, Jamin lights the advent candle of hope and talks about how Mary embodied hope, gave birth to hope, and cultivated hope. How do we do the same?

In this message, Jamin explains Jesus' kenosis from a poetic and metaphysical perspective. He also hits on the difference between Jesus' humility and a false Christian humility.

Many Christians today misunderstand what it means to suffer for Christ, mistaking cultural disagreements or personal offenses for true persecution. Drawing on Paul’s experiences, the ministry of Jesus, and the dynamic between ancient and modern Christianity, we explore how authentic Christian suffering shapes us into either prophets or jerks.

In this message, Jamin challenges us to reframe suffering not as a mark of opposition to others, but as an opportunity to live out the love, humility, and boldness of Christ. Along the way, we examine the danger of using suffering to justify hate, and the transformative power of enduring hardship for the gospel.

In Philippians, Paul talks about longing to be with God. Jamin uses this to talk about the Christian mystics of old, and their longing for the intimacy, presence, and experience of God. Where are our desires focused?

Paul addresses two types of Christians when writing from prison to the Philippians: Some are preaching the gospel because they like him, and some are preaching the gospel because they don't like him. Rather than turn it into a whole thing, Paul simply celebrates that they're preaching the gospel.

The Bible reminds us that churches and church leaders should all be on the same team, working toward the same goal. But instead of doing this together, churches often get jealous of one another which leads to a myriad of problems. In this message, Jamin addresses the many problems that come with spiritual jealousy.

This message on the prodigal son came after a very special time in worship where many in our congregation were weeping about the love of God.

Faith goes a long way with God and comes with reward, both now and in the age to come. Do you want to level up to a place where God can trust you with more? Then how might you handle what he's entrusted you with in the here and now?
