09-07-2026 PART 1: Mercy for Every Step Forward

Section 1

The relaunch of The David Spoon Experience from a completely new studio becomes another reminder that ministry is never about everything working perfectly—it is about the Lord being present through everything that happens. Dr. Dave emphasizes that the purpose remains unchanged: glorify God, draw closer to Him and one another, become better witnesses, and provide a genuine place where believers can pray for and encourage each other. Prayer requests, testimonies, and praise reports allow people separated by distance to function as a real family of faith. Technology may fail and mistakes will happen, but those things cannot prevent believers from loving, supporting, and strengthening one another.

Section 2

Something deeply personal happened immediately after Dr. Dave and Noelle completed their move. On that first day, both his son and daughter independently reached out and shared meaningful conversations about faith, ministry, family, and their spiritual journeys. For a father who once prayed simply that his faith would continue through another generation, seeing two of his children actively walking with God became a powerful picture of Ephesians 3:20—God doing exceedingly beyond what was originally asked or imagined. In the middle of relocation, exhaustion, and establishing a new ministry home, the Lord provided a glimpse that He was already working ahead of them and that there could be much more still to come.

Section 3

Through the frustrations of moving, rebuilding the studio, and trying to make countless decisions correctly, Dr. Dave recognized again the extraordinary mercy of God. Mercy means believers are not sustained by flawless performance but by God’s goodness toward His children. He sees every struggle, every sincere effort, every frustration, and even those moments when our responses fall short. Yet His mercy remains greater than our failures. Because believers were chosen in Christ before the foundation of the world, difficult circumstances do not mean God has abandoned them. Relationships, finances, work, and unexpected problems can become overwhelming, but His presence remains. Keep moving forward, do your best before Him, and trust the God whose mercy is greater than the struggle.

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.
