WELCOME HOME!
I believe God's Spirit is hovering over Jackson, Tennessee, longing to bring some new life. I'm not the only one. At least ten churches across Middle and West Tennessee are partnering to make this happen. Lord willing (I mean that literally), we will have a new expression of a church in Jackson in August of 2025. Momentum is building for this effort to reach people with the transforming message of the Gospel of Jesus. How can you help? (1) Pray with us. (2) You may invest your giving here if you feel led to do so. (3) Stay informed here. We invite you to partner with us on this great journey to begin this church in Jackson!

OUR TEAM

Pastor
Eddie & Lorin Stuart
Eddie and his wife Lorin have dedicated their lives to see genuine transformation in communities through the power of the Gospel! After being radically delivered from addiction and trauma, they found themselves deeply broken for others and felt the call to give it all for God and step into full time ministry. Compelled by Christ’s commission to ‘make disciples of all nations” they’ve served in addictions ministries, youth ministries, and other community building programs. In 2025 they sensed God beginning to share a vision for a new fresh move of The Spirit right here in Jackson TN. Along with their three children they are moving to Jackson to plant “The Formed Church” and open the doors of a revival of love to this community. They believe God is forming His church so that we can see a world on fire for Jesus one person, one city, one generation at a time !
