The School of Prophets

  • 1208 Greenwood Church 1208 Greenwood Ave Jackson, MI, 49203 (map)

What if the prophetic voice of Scripture isn’t just something to study, but something to practice? The School of Prophets is designed to help us listen more deeply—to Scripture, to the Holy Spirit, and to the cries and hopes of our city. Each gathering will be a 2.5-hour communal experience that will engage:

Prophetic Imagination

We’ll begin with a devotional-style conversation centered on a prophetic passage from the Bible. Not a lecture—more like a holy wrestling match. Together, we’ll ask what this text meant then, and what it might be daring us to do now.

Listening & Discernment

We’ll practice spiritual attentiveness through guided exercises and Spirit-led engagements, creating space to hear what the Holy Spirit may be speaking today—to us personally, to our church, and to Jackson.

Embodied Response

Prophecy doesn’t end in ideas. It moves toward action. Participants will be invited to respond creatively or practically—through art, writing, prayerful action steps, justice-oriented projects, or other tangible expressions that carry the prophetic word into everyday life, church life, and the streets of our city.

This gathering intentionally weaves together several of 1208’s emerging values and serves as a launching point into our weekly Spare Oom worship nights, where these ideas can continue to be processed late into the night.
