  • The Intimacy of God

    NEW PODCAST EPISODE: 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?

  • Idolatry, Justice, and Politics: A Pastor’s Drive to Engage in Political Conversations

    So you’ve seen me making a lot of political posts lately… Where should I start to explain this… Hi. My name is Jamin Bradley, and I wear a lot of hats—literally and figuratively. I am a pastor with a prominent supernatural edge. I’m a musical artist and a worship leader who enjoys experimentation. I’ve authored…

  • It Does Matter: Following Jesus in a Divisive Presidency

    There’s a certain kind of, “Doesn’t matter who is president—just follow Jesus” vibe going around today. I get it. I’ve said it too. It’s good theology. But Trump is not just another president sitting in an office, passing bills. We know his personality and how he has affected us in the past. We all have…

  • Spiritual Jealousy

    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…

  • The Perils of Political Nostalgia: When ‘Great’ Isn’t Great for Everyone

    “Make America Great Again” is a slogan built around a tradition of political nostalgia that reaches all the way back into Bible times. On one page of the Bible, Psalm 137 encourages exiled Israelites to remember the good ol’ days of Jerusalem, but on another page, you have the prophets decrying Jerusalem for its horrible…

  • Love First

    NEW EPISODE: 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.

  • Cultivating the Garden of God: Environmentalism and Our Heavenly Mission

    There is a coming day in Christian theology when (to quote my favorite lyricist) “Heaven meets Earth like a sloppy wet kiss.” At that point, Heaven and Earth will procreate to give way to a hybrid creation. This is foreshadowed in Jesus’ resurrected body, which is made of both Earth and Heaven. Environmentalism is important…

  • Why I’m Annoying About Politics: A Pastor’s Perspective on Faith and Policy

    “Why does Jamin have to be so annoying about politics?” If you’re asking that question, you’re not alone because I’m with you. A younger version of myself never expected me to get a degree in theology and social justice. I’ve never followed politics that closely, and I still don’t always know what the best policies…

  • One Nation, Under God? Examining the Gospel in Political Cheers

    I was scrolling through TikTok yesterday when I bumped into a livestream of one of Trump’s rallies. After severely addressing migrant criminal networks, he declared, “I’m here calling for the death penalty for any migrant that kills an American citizen or a law enforcement officer.” My heart sunk in horror as the crowd erupted in…

  • Leveling Up in Faith

    NEW PODCAST EPISODE: 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?
