06-16-2026 PART 2: Drawing Closer Every Day

Section 1

Opening with a conversation with Shane, Dr. Dave celebrates a remarkable answer to prayer as Shane shares news that his wife has been offered a new job with significantly higher pay and benefits that will help cover important family needs. The discussion quickly becomes a testimony to God’s provision, faithfulness, and timing. Along with rejoicing over the blessing, the conversation turns toward prayer for the nation and for Israel, recognizing the ongoing need for God’s guidance, protection, and intervention. The exchange serves as a reminder that believers should never stop bringing both personal needs and national concerns before the Lord.

Section 2

Marking the one-year anniversary of the current ministry format, Dr. Dave reflects on the lessons and priorities that have shaped the program. Rather than focusing on accomplishments, he highlights the importance of spiritual growth and introduces the ministry’s simple framework: draw closer to the Lord daily, never be ashamed of Jesus or His words, and always be ready to serve. These principles are presented as practical expressions of Christian discipleship rather than slogans. The emphasis remains on cultivating a deeper relationship with God, standing firmly on biblical truth, and maintaining a willingness to respond whenever the Lord provides opportunities for ministry.

Section 3

Looking beyond anniversary celebrations, the teaching centers on the daily pursuit of God and the importance of seeking His kingdom first. Drawing from Matthew 6 and Colossians 3, Dr. Dave explains that believers seek God by intentionally setting their minds on heavenly priorities and allowing their lives to be directed by eternal values. The Christian walk is not meant to be driven by anxiety about tomorrow but by faithfulness in the present. The final encouragement reminds listeners that while no ministry is perfect and mistakes are inevitable, God continues to work through willing hearts. As believers keep Christ at the center of each day, they discover the fulfillment, purpose, and joy that come from walking closely with Him.

David Spoon

David Spoon was born and raised in a Jewish home in Detroit, Michigan. He attended a private Hebrew school called Hillel Hebrew Academy. David was bar mitzvah-ed at the age of thirteen. Not long after, he was involved in drug abuse and trafficking. After hearing the Gospel for the first time at age seventeen, David accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. A few months later, David had a dramatic experience with God. Immediately set free from years of excessive drug use, he committed himself to ministry and to furthering the Kingdom of God.

He attended Arizona Bible College, Northern Arizona University, and Life Pacific College, graduating summa-cum-laude in their Ministry and Leadership program. He also graduated with honors from Regent University with a master’s degree in Theological Studies and earned his Doctor of Ministry degree in Strategic Christian Ministry at Liberty University.

He is one of a few individuals holding ministerial ordinations from three separate denominations: Heritage Free Baptist Organization, 1981; Independent Pentecostal Ministers Association, 1985; and Vineyard Valley Association, 1988. He was also the Chaplain for the Flagstaff Police Department. In addition, David was the senior pastor of Vineyard Christian Fellowship of Flagstaff.

In addition, David started and co-hosted two different live Christian call-in radio talk shows. He hosted the very popular radio show “The David Spoon Experience” on KPRZ 1210 and a show called “To Know Him,” which aired on 88.9 on the F.M. dial-in Temecula, California at 1:00 p.m., Monday through Fridays. He was also the Director of Local Ministry for Salem Media Group in San Diego, California.

David is married to his best friend, Noelle. He has three children and seven grandchildren, plus their two dogs named Levi and Bert. On March 18th, 2019, he started “The David Spoon Experience” in Texas and is growing with his audience of awesome believers and non-believers alike.

He is the President of He Must Increase Ministry, a 501c3 ministry, and is hosting (again) the live daily radio show “The David Spoon Experience” with DJR Broadcasting in KAAM, on the 770 A.M. radio dial. The show is also on various apps and the Internet.

David is a Jewish-Christian, Bapti-Costal, Cal-Minian, Manifold Millennialist.
