06-10-25 part 1: Hypocrisy, Humility, and Doing It Unto the Lord

Section One

The broadcast begins by revisiting the transition away from KAAM 770 AM and the launch of He Must Increase Radio. Though the mood reflects both sadness and excitement, the message is clear: the ministry is moving forward with full commitment, faith, and a dash of humor. Listeners are reassured that the teaching, encouragement, and connection will continue through the new platform. Support is needed—both spiritual and financial—but confidence remains that God is in this next season. Amid the change, the team offers help to anyone needing guidance in making the shift.

Section Two

From there, the message dives into Matthew 23, where Jesus addresses the Pharisees' hypocrisy. He instructs the crowd to follow what the Pharisees teach when it comes to Scripture, but not to imitate their behavior. Their actions don’t match their words—they place heavy burdens on others without lifting a finger to help. The heart of the teaching highlights the danger of spiritual manipulation and the importance of consistency between message and lifestyle. Teaching the truth while living dishonestly is not just flawed—it’s harmful to others and displeasing to God.

Section Three

The difference between genuine believers and self-serving leaders is made plain. A true follower of Christ is transparent, acknowledges personal flaws, and pursues God’s transformation. Being under construction is not failure—it’s proof of sanctification. The broadcast explores the progression of salvation: justification (past), sanctification (present), and glorification (future). Leaders are called to serve, not control; to love, not manipulate. Those who feed on the sheep rather than feed them are warned that they will face judgment. A loving shepherd leads by example and humility, reflecting Jesus’ own mission of service.

Section Four

The segment closes with a practical reflection from Colossians 3:24: “Whatever you do, do it enthusiastically, as unto the Lord.” The emphasis is on attitude. Whether you enjoy the task or not, if you must do it, do it with the right heart. Serving the Lord in daily life, even in menial or difficult duties, carries eternal value. The reward is not from people—it’s from God. With humor, honesty, and encouragement, listeners are reminded that every act—done with a heart for God—is seen, valued, and ultimately rewarded by the One who matters most.

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.
