The David Spoon Experience 2-28-24 part 2

1) We begin with a return to the very first topic I addressed on the radio during my demo show before embarking on my radio career. This topic pertains to Christianity and poses a simple, straightforward question: "What is Christianity all about?" Many perceive it as a religion or a crutch, among other things. However, the real question that will determine people's eternities is their response to "What is Christianity all about?" and "Who is Jesus?"

2) Before we can appreciate any good news, we must first understand the bad news. The bad news is that we are all sinners. Our sins have separated us from God and brought death and disease into our lives and our planet. There is no escaping this bad news. The disobedience of Adam and Eve is ingrained in our nature because we all descend from Adam and Eve. Once they fell and rebelled, that rebellious DNA was passed on to us.

3) However, this bad news is accompanied by an incredible dose of good news. This good news is what Jesus Christ proclaimed as the good news of the Kingdom of God. The good news is that there is an answer to the bad news. Ironically, the Gospel is the answer to our self-destructive lives and the solution to reconcile us with God.

4) We will take a few minutes to review what Christianity is not. Contrary to what many people think, it's not a secret club with secret handshakes. Being a Christian currently puts a target on your back because there are more worldly people than followers of The Way. However, God's armies are with us, so we are in greater power and in numbers than them.

5) People need to understand that Christianity is not about following a series of rules and regulations, nor is it about wearing a special badge. It's about having the seal of the Holy Spirit in our hearts and minds, given to us through the redeeming work of Jesus Christ and granted to us by the love of the Father. This is about a living relationship with a living God. Anything else diminishes the value of Jesus Christ's sacrifice and His resurrection.

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.
