Speak from the Heart

Kaytlin Turner brings us one last message before graduating and heading home. We love you Kaytlin!

The "Will" of Jesus

If you want to know who God is, you need to look at his Son, who is the clearest revelation of the Father. Once you've gotten to know his will and character, then the rest of the Bible starts to make sense and we begin to live as we should.

Casting Nets

Peter's miraculous catch of fish had more to say about ministry than it does about fishing. In this message, Jamin explains what this story can teach us about the relationship between Jesus, evangelism, and the church.

The Healers of Heaven

There are many ways to think of healing, but have you ever framed it in the light of Heaven and the resurrection life breaking through into our lives today? Jamin throws an "On earth as it is in Heaven" spin on a topic we've frequently visited here at 1208.

The Exorcists of Exorcists

Exorcism existed before Jesus came around, but no one was as wildly successful at it as Jesus was. Throughout his ministry, he shows time and time again that he is the name above all names and that removing demons requires nothing more than a word from him.

Walking in Faith

Our intern Kaytlin preaches on a theme God has been laying on her heart.

A Bigger Pro-Life Ethic

With the coming election, many are conversing about abortion. There is much to be said on this topic, but it is often covered up by everyone’s yelling. While being a pro-life Free Methodist himself, Jamin brings a message that convicts the church for the poor ways in which we’ve handled the conversation and calls us to a wider ethic of walking out our pro-life faith. If the church wakes up to the many other pro-life issues that feed abortion, we might actually be able to diminish the number of abortions that happen via our radical neighborly love. He also takes a look at how abortion has been around since the earliest pages of the Bible, how the early Judeo-Christian world addressed it, and how their actions might apply to us today.

If you prefer to read, much of the information in this podcast episode can be found in Jamin's recent blog post here.

The Already But Not Yet of Jubilee

In Jesus' mission statement is a reference to Jubilee. What does that have to do with his mission? What else might we see in this reference?

Church Unification

Kayla Knapp brings a special message on a theme near and dear to her heart: church unification.

The Promise, The Power, and the Presence

Pastor Steven Hlatky follows up Reveal Jackson 2022 as a guest speaker for our Sunday service and leads us into the Scriptures to remind us of the mission and empowerment of the Church.

Reveal Jackson: Spirit Infused Music

Jamin has been the lead pastor at 1208 Greenwood for 11 years. He has written 8 books, released several hours of music, and has helped launch unique expressions of the church here in Jackson, including Dinner Church, Nerd Church, and an online church. As an activist he has chaired, founded, and served in several different coalitions and organizations around Jackson, especially ones that look to help the poor and those dealing with addiction. He blogs and podcasts regularly at jaminbradley.com.

Reveal Jackson: Deliverance

Gospel Recording Artist Shantelle Hawkins has laid and travailed on the altar for over 30 years to birth her music ministry career. Shantelle was given the name “Fearless Prophetic Worshipper,” because her prophetic praise echoes deliverance as she bravely goes to war against the powers of darkness and often hear the "Sounds of Victory". She has traveled across the states sharing platforms and pulpits with many of gospel greats. She describes her most valued and memorable moments being the time spent pursuing the presence of the Holy Spirit, witnessing the atmosphere shifting and yokes being broken off of God’s people through worship.

Reveal Jackson: Power Evangelism

Steven is the lead pastor of The Foundery Church in Wellsburg, WV. His encounter with Holy Spirit as a teenager pushed him to search for and recognize God's workings in his life and those around him. He believes there is a (w)holistic approach to the ministry we do for the Kingdom of God.

Tested Like Jesus

It was the Holy Spirit who drove Jesus into the wilderness to be tested. As we watch Jesus face off against Satan, we come to learn a few things about battling temptation in our own lives.

Repentance is the Way to Jesus

As John the Baptist starts his ministry, he calls the remnant of Israel into repentance. This mantle continues to be carried by Jesus after John's passing, and that message is now passed on to us here at 1208 as the Holy Spirit has called us to "repent to make space for new gifts."

How Many Signs Do You Need?

As we begin a new series on Luke, we take a look at an incredible sign being given about John the Baptist's birth and his father's unbelief. How often have we been told exactly what to do and yet we want more proof and signs to point us toward it?

Kingdom Ministry

Why are we so intent in our new church model on physical and spiritual needs? Jamin explains that even though much of the church has seen good works as something separate or other than church, it's actually a core part of our identity.

The Importance of Church Services

At 1208 Greenwood we've reprogrammed church to work in a lot of unique ways. So why do we still incorporate a fairly standard worship service with music, preaching and more into our gatherings? We dive into 1 Corinthians 14 for more answers on that.

The Lord's Breakfast

Why do we make a big deal about eating together when we gather on Sundays? Why do we incorporate communion into it? Is it just to be cool or is there a Biblical precedent to it? In this message Jamin explains how eating together connects to Jesus’ ministry and the gatherings of the early church and the prophetic and strategic messaging it carries when we still do it today.

Our new church model launches September 11th!

• 9am | The Lord’s Breakfast: Grab a bowl from our cereal bar.

• 10am | Worship Service: Unique music style and deeply researched teaching.

• 11am | Kingdom Ministry: Let us help with your physical and spiritual needs.
