The David Spoon Experience 3-22-23 Part 2

1) I remember when I first said “yes” to Jesus. At the beginning of the journey, I thought that Jesus was the best fire insurance ever. I did NOT disrespect or disbelieve Him or in Him. I just concluded that eternal life was a gift. A gift is a gift. Most of the time, a gift is just cool to receive. Yep, in my mind, I was part of the greatest deal ever. Repent, believe, and follow Jesus. Totally cool. How could this ever be questioned by anyone? I didn’t think much of the earthly journey, having already seen money, fame, and power up close. But an awesome eternity?

2) Guess what? The moment we say yes to Jesus and take the RED PILL and say YES to Jesus, from the human perspective, things start to get in motion. As we travel into the depths of the journey, we begin to know the draw of the Lord to get closer to Him. At some point, we even pray this prayer: “Lord Jesus, whatever it takes, whatever You want, and I want to follow You.” Yep, that is our decision to go full heart commitment to the Lord and His kingdom.

3) And then, it happens. The heavens feel like they become a little tighter. The enemy appears to get more aggressive. And we start clawing through certain trials with a little less of a smile. It is here that we should remember the words of Jesus to His disciples. John 6:67 states, Then Jesus turned to the Twelve and asked, “Are you also going to leave? Well…when it gets hard and harder, do we want to go?

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.
