RING THEM BELLS

Christmas on the streets hits different.
Project launchpad is giving these amazing young men their first taste of a real Christmas in quite some time. We put some Christmas jams on and celebrated the goodness of God as we decorated the tree and hung the stockings with care.
The first gift of Christmas was received and it was a ninja air fryer.
Literally the gift that just keeps on giving💯
God is moving in some miraculous ways to bring about this moment. I’m literally watching HIM move mountains in front of me.
More than just presents under the tree are the promises that God is fulfilling and bringing about in these young men’s life.

But let’s be honest, it never hurts to have a few presents under the tree 🎅

God is making some incredible connections for these young men and the future of “project launchpad.”
Christmas is coming in hot.
“It’s practically here”
Excited to show these young men the true gift of having your life anchored and connected to the one true king, Jesus.

Let every heart prepare HIM room!

Today was our Christmas celebration at our Eden outpost at the Bro Bowl skate park in Tampa.
Before I could blink we were serving hundreds of plates buffet style with decadent spiral cut hams, turkey meatballs slow roasted in gravy, green beans, mashed potatoes and a dessert buffet that would knock your socks off.
We don’t skimp and feed like we eat.
I can’t leave out the coleslaw. Steffany Bostow‘s incredible coleslaw is now famous on the streets of Tampa💯
No matter what meal we have people request that it is there.
Duke, a regular at our feedings, loves it so much that he took some home to his mama, who also apparently loves coleslaw, lol.

We celebrated the beauty and Hope that we all have because of Jesus.
Today we let heaven and nature sing the wonders of His love.

This will be our last feeding of 2025 and currently as I’m thinking back through it all I’m getting choked up at what God has done for these people through our ministry.
Before I say another word let me say thank you to each and every single one of you who have partnered with us, through prayer, support, donations, and just watching the content.
We could not have done this without YOU and your support!
God is doing something special through our community and it is an honor to serve the one true king alongside all of you.
Jesus definitely has worked in my heart in a mighty way through all of this.
I’m humbled to be a part of it and to witness the joy that HE is bringing to the world through Ring them bells.
Please keep us in prayer as we are moving forward into “project launchpad.“
We’re going to be involved in an intensive six month program to help some of our community members get off the streets and living the life that they deserve and are called to.
We have officially moved a few of our community members out of Tampa Heights and are currently at an Airbnb in citrus Park looking for work as we finalize things on the new house and property.
There is a lot going on and I welcome your support and prayers now more than ever
🙏
We need help!
Be on the lookout for ways that you can partner with what we’re doing at project launchpad.

Personally, I’m excited for the slowdown of Christmas and to sit back and take in all that God has done and is doing.
With the new year comes a promise of new beginnings and the start of something really incredible for our ministry.
Stay tuned!

The beginning is near.

Can AI be redeemed?

RING THEM BELLS

Just finished up preparing for our Monday interview with author and Pastor Todd Korpi going over his fascinating new book “AI goes to church.”.
We are still reeling from one of our most recent releases that exposed the dangers and dark side of artificial intelligence. Todd explores a more balanced approach and sees a future where the church can utilize artificial intelligence as a tool to more effectively share the gospel. Now he doesn’t skip over any of the dark parts and I’m excited to address all of those with him.
This will bring us into topics like, the image of God, the three rebellions of Genesis, and the schemes and algorithms of the evil one trying to take us back into chaos.

Get excited and stay tuned!

I know I am🙋🏻‍♂️🙏🔔


Have a great weekend everybody!

In the End it was the Beginning

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made.”
‭‭John‬ ‭1:1-3‬ ‭ESV‬‬

John a close disciple of Jesus wrote the fourth and last installment of the Gospels.

He started his gospel unlike any other of the accounts.
No birth narrative
Very stylishly linguistic
And he brought it all the way back to the garden.

You would be shocked at how much of the Bible points back to the garden of Eden.

This is where the drama began. Our failure as humans filled our world with violence, chaos, and a separation from our creator.

But from the very beginning God made a promise that He wouldn’t leave it that way.
God made a promise that someone would rise up out of humanity and even though it would be painful, He would crush evil underneath His feet

 “I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring; he shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise his heel."”
‭‭Genesis‬ ‭3:15‬ ‭ESV‬‬

This promise is further extended through the patriarch Abraham when God promised Him that he would bless the entire world through his offspring.

“I will surely bless you, and I will surely multiply your offspring as the stars of heaven and as the sand that is on the seashore. And your offspring shall possess the gate of his enemies, and in your offspring shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice."”
‭‭Genesis‬ ‭22:17-18‬ ‭ESV‬‬

So people waited in expectation for a savior.
Constantly looking for Hope with someone new coming to power.

Moses- Nope
David- Nope
Solomon- Nope

King after king
Failure after failure.

By the time Jesus is born on the scene.
People are frustrated and waiting for their Savior to come End it now.

When Jesus came everyone around him was expecting the Messiah to be THE END of something.
The end of the Roman Empire
The end of oppression
The end of suffering
Turns out the only thing physical in this world that ENDED, was Jesus‘s life.

And this gave us something We didn’t expect.

We were all expecting “the end“

And what we got was a beginning.

God is doing something new, and he began it with Jesus✅🙌🏻

 “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
In him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.”
‭‭John‬ ‭1:1, 4-5‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Many people look for the second coming of Jesus to be the end.

I’m pretty sure it’s just the beginning✌️🎯

Good morning!

“The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil.”
‭‭1 John‬ ‭3:8‬ ‭ESV‬‬

“While he was coming, the demon threw him to the ground and convulsed him. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father. And all were astonished at the majesty of God. But while they were all marveling at everything he was doing, Jesus said to his disciples,”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭9:42-43‬ ‭ESV‬‬

If you are a Bible believing Christian.
You believe some weird stuff just like me✅

I mean there’s a talking snake on page 3. 🤷🏻‍♂️

But by our Western standard some of the weirdest stuff that the Bible talks about is the spiritual realm and the unseen forces that we battle against.

The story of the garden of Eden is what the entire Bible hinges upon.
All of it in one way or the other relates back to that story in the Garden.
All of it.
In the garden we as humanity we’re tempted by a spiritual evil that wants to destroy what God has created.
We failed, and we may not have needed help to do so.
But the Bible is clear that we had help.

The rebellion that we entered into, we did not enter in alone.
There were other spiritual forces that rebelled as well, and they have been at our throats ever since.
God gave us a choice, and you can’t have a choice with only one decision.
These evil forces represent the other side of the coin.
The other choice that we can make besides partnering with God.

But for some strange reason western evangelical churches have just fallen off the map with even discussing this topic.
The apostle John, Who was an eyewitness to Jesus and his earthly ministry specifically said that Jesus’s purpose for coming into this world was to destroy the works of the devil.

To destroy the power of these evil unseen forces.

These evil forces can no longer condemn us. We may have to wrestle against them while we are on this side of the kingdom.

But the ultimate victory has been won by Jesus on the cross.

Still Christian, don’t let anyone fool you. We battle against unseen forces that desire to destroy your marriage, your relationship with your children, and Just in general work against you.

This perspective can give you hope inside the moments of struggle.

The ultimate victory has been won, but we have an advocate with God the father who is Jesus Christ.
Don’t be afraid to call out on the name of Jesus in the middle of a storm.
He’s got plenty of experience and He stands ready to listen and help✅❤️

Our ministry and community took some huge steps forward today. We are close to finalizing on a property in Citrus Oark that will not only give us a headquarters but also become a launchpad for the needy of Tampa Bay to get back on their feet.
I took the day to drive around the city and introduce myself to local businesses, churches, and even the sheriffs department and let them know what our ministry is all about and what we plan on bringing to the community.
I am so excited for what God is doing.
There’s a lot going on but I’m grateful for God’s direction and guidance through it all.

Finishing the night off editing and preparing for our big interview tomorrow…

Stay tuned!

RING THEM BELLS

Ring Them Bells it’s super excited for an interview with Terry M. Wildman this Wednesday.

Terry was instrumental in the release of the recent “first nations version, an indigenous translation of the Bible.”
This has been such a refreshing translation for me and my studies.

Check him out here reading the first native version of the Lord’s Prayer- https://youtu.be/iWA4uFb12FY?si=UUJ4T...

We actually have a few other projects in the works that pertain to the Native American culture and how it overlaps with the biblical narrative.

I am beyond excited for this opportunity and welcome your prayers.

Stay tuned!

Huge update!

I need your prayers desperately.

The Lord is moving in a significant way through our ministry.
So many of you have partnered with us and have been a vital source of encouragement and support that has allowed us to serve and help the homeless in Tampa Bay.
I wanted to make sure that I keep all of you in the loop as to what God is currently doing.

Some of you know that we have been praying for and on the hunt for housing for some of our community members. I have some huge news to share that God has opened a door for us to take the next step in our ministry.

After years of working with some of the same community members and seeing struggles and their desire to get off the streets, I could no longer sit by and watch.
God laid on my heart to start “project launchpad.”
A six month (to a year) intensive program, based on biblical principles, designed to give these wonderful humans an opportunity to grow and reclaim their lives.
With daily supervision and guidance these wonderful humans would be provided with free housing and enough money for food and basic needs. Each member would be required to work 40 hours a week.
This is our absolute foundational sticking point of the program.
We will be working with each member to help them get a job and then remain consistent afterwards.

With daily check ins and weekly prayer and support meetings I truly believe God will help these young men find their path.

So we have been praying about finding either a rental or property that would suit our ministry.
As I felt God calling me towards this path I also felt attention and awareness that currently we could not financially support something like this.

But God told me to trust.
HE told me over and over again that the God of the universe is never bankrupt or deficient.

If He calls you to something He will provide…

As we set out towards this submission and call two separate donors have come forward and the most amazing of ways.

Two close friends have come together and offered up a significant donations that would not only be able to take care of the down payment for a home for our program but also monthly assistance for the next year.

A lot of the pressure that I feel inside of this ministry is to make sure that I’m continuing to spread the word about what we’re doing so that we can be able to take care of these wonderful humans.
With this offering and gift, for the next 12 months, a lot of that pressure has been relieved.
Not only is it a huge financial blessing, but it allows me to take my focus and put it squarely onto these young men and into the program.

After these two incredible humans have come forward, I have been on the House hunt working tirelessly to figure out the next step and get these guys off the streets for good.

The Lord has led me to an incredible property that is less than 20 minutes from my home. It is the ONLY one on the market that fits our requirements both financially and geographically.
We have submitted an offer and are waiting on a reply.

This is a HUGE moment for our ministry and I wanted to keep you all in the loop both to brag on what God is doing and encourage you to pray for us and this moment.

I truly feel God calling us to this specific property and I would ask you to pray that it would come to fruition and that God would continue to get the glory!

I’ve never been shy about admitting that, it’s just me here at ring them bells. Yes I’ve got community members that work with us at our pop-up feeding centers, but other than that EVERYTHING that is done here is me. Whether it’s editing, marketing, Scheduling interviews, or researching new topics, I don’t outsource one single aspect of it. And I absolutely love it that way.
I’m going to continue through this endeavor as our YouTube channel and community are a vital source of Life both for this ministry and for me personally.
I love This space and I love being a part of what the Lord is doing in all of our lives through this great content!

That will never change.

However for the moment my gaze and focus are going to be shifted towards this project and these young men.
The Cool thing is you will come along for the journey and I will be sharing a small docuseries that goes over these young men and their experience through the program.

We are still going to be creating incredible content and interviewing top authors and scholars from across the globe.
I believe this channel is going to grow even farther in ways that I can’t imagine because of what God’s doing in this moment.
I really believe that🙋🏻‍♂️
I’m just so grateful for this opportunity to actually impact the lives of these young men and see what the spirit of God will do.

Make no mistake, we still need our monthly donors and continued support from anyone that the Lord leads to offer assistance.
Our weekly feedings and everything else we do relies upon this greatly.
We couldn’t do it without your support.

You all are a part of that with me. Our ministry could never be here at this moment if it weren’t for you!
Thank you for watching the videos.
Thank you for sending them out.
Thank you for donating.
Thank you for encouraging me with your comments and emails.
Thanks for sticking with me even when I wasn’t perfect.
Because of you, God has worked something wonderful inside my life and now in the lives of these young men.

And the cool thing is …

We are literally just getting started

Please pray for God’s guidance and continued blessing on “project launchpad.“

Love y’all

- Jason

God is moving in this ministry in a tangible way.

Big things are on the horizon for our community here at Ring Them Bells
Our Ministry will always have its foundation and roots established in the service of those in need.
So many of you have partnered with us, and I just want to pause again and say THANK YOU!

I love our spot at the skate park, not only for a central place to help the homeless, but I’m loving the impact we are having with the young skaters as well.
Our table is literally open to everyone.
The team knocked todays service out of the park.
We are working in a rhythm to be able to handle a full scale restaurant service.

It is a sight to see. Often I get struck at watching all these incredible young men working tirelessly and I can’t figure out how I got so lucky to serve with them.

We always share prayer and a short word at the beginning of service. But I was grateful for Joe (my father-in-law and our top Chef) inspiring me to go a little bit deeper and to share different types of bread today.

Again, we are just getting started here folks.

Stay tuned!

The beginning is near.
