  • Good Friday and the Principalities and Powers

    “The worst thing about the massacre was killing my neighbor; we used to drink together.” said a Hutu mother as she reflected on killing the Tutsi children next door in the Rwandan genocide. “His cattle would graze on my land. He was like a relative.” But one day someone from the government told her that…

  • The Fourth Cup of Maundy Thursday

    The Last Supper is what Christians today call “communion,” and what the Jews referred to as “Passover”—and it’s this meal that we reflect on this Maundy Thursday. Like all holidays, Passover, had many traditions built into it as this holiday celebrated the Hebrews being liberated from Egyptian tyranny. Around Jesus’ time, the Passover supper had…

  • Is the Rapture a Thing?

    When many people think about Revelation and the apocalypse, they think of the rapture. But strangely enough, there’s nothing (at least explicit) about a rapture in the book of Revelation. Since we’re currently doing a series on Revelation and we will not naturally get into this conversation based on what we read in Revelation, we’ve…

  • Betrayal and Grace: The Judas Paradox

    In this episode of Jamin AI, we explore one of the Bible’s most haunting stories—Judas’ betrayal of Jesus. From embezzlement to blood money, we dive deep into how Judas’ unrepentant sin led to his demonization and ultimate betrayal. What can we learn from Jesus’ response, where betrayal and grace meet in an unforgettable kiss? In…

  • The Upside Down World of King Jesus

    Most evangelicals preach that Jesus didn’t come looking to take over through power, politics, and violence, but our actions the last few years have shown that we only believe this theologically, not practically. In this Palm Sunday message, Jamin reminds us what the upside down kingdom of world of Jesus is really like, and that…

  • When Worship Music Becomes Industry

    The world of Contemporary Christian Music has changed over the last few decades into the world of the Worship Music Industry. While countless great worship songs have come out of this movement, so have many dishonest and theologically flawed songs. As worship music grows more and more plentiful, we must learn to be wise in…

  • Trap Tuesday

    On Holy Tuesday, Jesus faced a series of challenging questions from the religious leaders, each attempting to trap Him. But time and time again, Jesus turned the tables, using their own logic and Scripture against them. In this post, we explore how Jesus cleverly navigated these debates, revealing not just His authority but His profound…

  • The Wrath of the Lamb?

    Once the sixth seal of Revelation is opened, the world seems to start falling apart as the “wrath of the lamb” begins. What should we do with this fairly terrifying passage and how does it connect to the five previous seals?

  • Jesus’ Fig Sandwich

    On Holy Monday we remember the story where Jesus got “hangry” and cursed a fig tree to death for not having any figs on it, despite the fact that it wasn’t the time of year where it should have had figs. But what appears at first to be a hilarious story soon becomes serious. We…

  • A Healthy Fear of God

    I’ve noticed over the years that when my kids don’t take my words of safety seriously, I get quickly and deeply frustrated. For example, we stepped off the train into Chicago at midnight last night and I struggled to get them to keep up with me and pay attention to the busy streets around them.…
