03-21-25 part 2: Rock Solid Faith: Lessons from The David Spoon Experience

Building on the Rock: A Foundation of Faith

The David Spoon Experience, airing on KAAM 770, emphasizes the importance of a steadfast faith rooted in biblical truth. Drawing from Jesus’ teaching about building a house on sand versus rock, host David Spoon illustrates that life's storms will test our foundations. He references Jeremiah 31:7, encouraging listeners to "proclaim, praise, and say" — actions that reinforce faith through declaration, thanksgiving, and repetition. This segment underscores that circumstances should not dictate our lives; rather, Jesus as Lord provides stability and salvation from both sin and situational chaos, ensuring we remain unshaken when we stand on Him.

Engaging the Word: Trivia and Teaching

The program blends interactive trivia with deep biblical insights to educate and engage its audience. For instance, Spoon poses questions like, "Who did Jehu instruct to be thrown from a window in 2 Kings 9:30-33?" (answer: Jezebel), and "What did Noah use to seal the ark in Genesis 6:13-14?" (answer: pitch). These questions serve as gateways to broader lessons, such as the consequences of wickedness or God’s provision in adversity. Spoon also explores Ephesians 4:26-27, teaching that righteous anger is permissible but must not linger, lest it give the devil a foothold, urging listeners to release bitterness and trust in God’s redemptive grace.

Living Faith Daily: Practical Encouragement

Spoon offers practical advice for daily Christian living, encapsulated in the acronym "RDNA": Draw closer to the Lord daily, Never be ashamed of Jesus or His words, and Always be ready to serve. He shares personal anecdotes, like giving a thumbs-up to a stranger, to illustrate how simple acts of obedience can bless others. Additionally, he tackles 1 Peter 5:8, warning of the devil’s tactics to instill fear, using a humorous yet poignant story of a microwave fire to show how staying calm in chaos reflects trust in God’s presence. This section inspires listeners to live proactively and peacefully, rooted in faith.

Divine Omniscience and Humility: Trusting the Unknown

In a profound teaching from 1 Samuel 23:10-12, Spoon highlights God’s omniscience, showing how David’s inquiry about Saul’s pursuit reveals God’s knowledge of all possible outcomes. This leads into John 13:3-7, where Jesus washes the disciples’ feet, and Peter’s confusion prompts Jesus to say, “You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand.” Spoon connects this to our lives, encouraging trust in God’s unseen work despite our current lack of understanding. The program closes with an invitation to embrace this mystery, assuring listeners that clarity will come in God’s timing, reinforcing a humble, reliant faith.

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.
