In this groundbreaking special episode of The Clash, hosts Jeff Dixon and Chris Whaley host the world premiere of the trailer for the highly anticipated film, The Jesus Tapes. Joining them are writer-director Rick Pamplin and producers Maggie Pamplin and Scott DuPont to discuss a cinematic journey nearly 50 years in the making. Inspired by a 1977 conversation with Talia Shire and the Coppola family, Rick Pamplin reveals the intense spiritual and professional battle required to bring this story to life—including his dramatic resignation from the Directors Guild of America to protect the film’s integrity.
Described as “The Blair Witch Project meets The Passion of the Christ,” the movie is built upon the 1927 book The Complete Sayings of Jesus Christ, focusing exclusively on the 33,000 words spoken by Jesus without the filter of man-made rules or denomination. The creators share chilling behind-the-scenes accounts of how the lead actor seemingly “channeled” the Messiah on set, leaving even skeptical crew members in awe. This is not just a movie premiere; it is a call to return to the core, unfiltered message of Christ in a culture of noise and skepticism. Discover why this film is being called a “God thing” for 2026 and how it aims to bypass the “merchandising of religion” to reach a world hungry for truth.

Deep within the wilderness of Vermont lies a stretch of forest where the line between reality and legend begins to blur. In this episode of Urban Legends, host Jeff Dixon explores the haunting history of the Bennington Triangle—an area surrounding Glastonbury Mountain where, between 1945 and 1950, five people seemingly stepped out of this world and into another. From an experienced woodsman who vanished in the blink of an eye to a veteran who disappeared from a moving bus, we examine the baffling cases that birthed a legend of curses, UFOs, and ancient mysteries. Are these mere coincidences of the wild, or is there something more profound lurking beneath the trees? Join us as we recount these unsettling disappearances and prepare to look deeper into the spiritual ramifications of a place where people go in, but never come out.

Imagine waking up tomorrow morning to find that the only people, blessings, and comforts still in your life were the ones you specifically took the time to thank God for today. In this opening episode of the limited series “Ignite Gratitude,” Jeff Dixon from the Church of 434 poses this soul-stirring question to challenge our perspective on thankfulness. Far from being just a polite gesture, gratitude is a powerful, scientifically-backed force that has the ability to shift your heart rate, lower your stress, and literally change the trajectory of your life. Grounded in the truth of 1 Timothy 6:17—that God richly gives us all things to enjoy—this video bridges the gap between ancient scripture and modern psychology. Don’t settle for being “happy-ish” or “almost joyful.” Join us as we explore why followers of Christ should be the most thankful people on earth and learn how to ignite a fire of gratitude that consumes the stress of yesterday and illuminates the hope of tomorrow.

The Jesus Times is a series about Jesus. That should be obvious from the title, but it is built upon the idea expressed in Hebrews 13:8 – Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
What that verse tells us, and this is good news, is that the Jesus we discover in the pages of Scripture is the same Jesus who calls us and loves us today, and that is never going to change. Every snapshot we get in the life and times of Jesus then give us a glimpse of the past, which impacts our present, and defines our future. And that is really good news! So this series is a brief look into the life and times of Jesus!
