Hi Friend,
My name is Jamie. I'm a Bible teacher, speaker, author, and the only woman in a house full of boys.
I grew up in a pastor's home, watching ministry up close for as long as I can remember. For years I was bound by fear and people pleasing, searching for something real with God, until His Word set me free.
I've spent the past two decades in ministry, starting at AnGeL Ministries with Anne Graham Lotz, then serving in the Women's Ministry Department at Shadow Mountain Community Church with Dr. David Jeremiah from 2013 to 2020. In April 2020, God led me to start Discovering Truth Ministries, devoted to the expository teaching of His Word.
I value TRUTH, because only God's Word can renew our minds and show us who we really are. I value TRANSPARENCY, because joy comes only when we're honest about our need for God. I value TRANSFORMATION, because truth and transparency together make us women of influence, image-bearers of Jesus who bear fruit for Him in every part of life.
I look forward to growing in the Lord together with you.
Jamie Adele Wood
Discovering Truth Ministries
Discovering Truth Ministries is a non-denominational 501(c)3 non-profit Christian ministry devoted to the expository teaching of the Word of God. We're committed to helping people understand and live in the truth of Scripture and the depth of God's love for them.
We exist to help people learn, love, and live out God's Word. We bring Scripture to people in spiritual need through Bible-based study curriculum for churches and personal use, books and devotional resources, one-minute Truth Talk radio spots airing here and abroad, online publications, live speaking events, and women's ministry team and program development.
Statement of Faith
The Scriptures
We believe that the Bible is the Word of God. As so, it is supernaturally inspired and inerrant in its original writings. The sacred Scriptures have been preserved by God in its verbal and plenary inspiration and speak with divine authority over all time and all people.
The Trinity
We believe in the eternal triune nature of God, that He is three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and that they are one God. We believe that God is the creator, sustainer and ruler over all. It was God, in His sovereign love and will, that sent Jesus into the world to save sinners.
Jesus Christ
We believe in the incarnation of Jesus Christ, that He took on flesh and lived among us. Jesus was born of a virgin and remained sinless throughout His life. He was crucified on a cross, died to pay sin's ransom for us, was buried, but rose again on the third day and triumphed over sin and death. We believe He ascended into Heaven and sits at God's right-hand interceding for believers and is the Head of the Church. We believe that He will come again to earth to set up His millennial kingdom.
Salvation
We believe that through the death, burial and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, that a perfect and blameless sacrifice was made to completely atone and redeem us from the curse of the law. We believe that salvation comes by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, and we are saved for good works, not because of good works. God, through His Son Jesus Christ and the sanctifying work of His Spirit, enable us to live lives of obedience to our Lord.
Eternal Security
We believe that a true believer is eternally secure, through Christ's death and resurrection, and that salvation cannot be lost. While there is still sin in the believer's life, which interrupts our fellowship with God and will bring about His loving discipline, it does not remove from us what He has secured for each believer. We believe that when Christ returns to make all things new, our bodies will be made in the likeness of His and we will forever dwell in the presence of our God and Savior.
The Christian Life
We believe that the Christian life should be characterized by obedience. It is possible to live lives of obedience to Christ because He has given us His indwelling Spirit and the Word of God to guide us. We believe that every believer should be an active participant in a local church since this is what God has given us for spiritual development and community outreach.
