04-24-25 part 2: Faith Pockets, Fun Fellowship, and Kingdom Commitments

1. Divine Appointments and Radio Connections

Dr. Spoon opens this segment with a heartfelt exchange between callers and himself, demonstrating the deep bond formed through the David Spoon Experience. One call in particular stands out—JD, a listener Dr. Spoon had been praying for before he even called. That moment of Spirit-led intuition reveals the beautiful mystery of divine appointments. Through humor, spiritual encouragement, and even a little sarcasm, Dr. Spoon affirms how God uses unexpected moments to affirm His presence, reminding listeners that even when they feel alone or unsure, He is near and paying attention.

2. DNA of a Devoted Disciple

Returning to the show’s foundational principles—what he playfully refers to as spiritual “DNA”—Dr. Spoon emphasizes: D for Drawing closer to the Lord daily, N for Never being ashamed of Jesus or His words, and A for Always being ready to serve. He humorously encourages listeners to “get your BFN (Big Fat Nose) in the book” and stay rooted in Scripture. The takeaway is powerful: closeness to God isn’t about religious performance; it’s about daily commitment, Scriptural engagement, and readiness to be used by God, no matter your qualifications.

3. Kingdom Leadership and Spiritual Influence

Dr. Spoon dives into Colossians 4:1, unpacking a kingdom truth often overlooked—those in positions of authority must lead with justice and fairness because they, too, have a Master in heaven. Whether you're a boss, parent, influencer, or teacher, you are accountable to God for how you treat others. Dr. Spoon draws a hard line between biblical leadership and worldly misuse of power, noting that even social influencers and media moguls will one day give account. His message is a wake-up call to all who wield influence: God is not just watching—He’s recording.

4. Joy, Prayer, and That “Faith Pocket”

The show ends on a note of worship, laughter, and powerful prayer. Dr. Spoon prays for listeners facing financial and health battles—particularly a touching moment with “Roger Again,” whose wife is undergoing radiation treatment. Despite hardship, their unwavering hope in Jesus becomes a beacon for others. Roger coins the phrase “faith pocket”—a beautiful metaphor for storing expectation in God’s goodness. Whether through jokes, Scripture, or intercession, the heart of the message is clear: stay joyful, stay thankful, and keep your “faith pocket” full, because the God who brought you this far isn’t done yet.

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.
