Our Story
In 2006, In The Light Philadelphia was born. Jamie returned to his hometown from Lancaster, PA as a restored son to the city he was broken for.
In The Light quickly became a place where religiously wounded and societal outcasts were experiencing the Father’s heart for their lives. Their discovery was that “they were born for so much more”. A decade later, God has used the church to revive and impact people’s lives through salvation, healing, and deliverance.
​
In The Light continues to advance the kingdom of God through loving those far from Christ while equipping the church to bring heaven here now.
