Deep in the Vermont wilderness lies a stretch of land where the trails twist, the earth is said to be “angry,” and people simply vanish without a trace. In this episode of Urban Legends, host Jeff Dixon explores the chilling history of the Bennington Triangle, from the infamous disappearances of the 1940s to the harrowing 2008 account of a hiker who survived a “dizzying” brush with the unknown. We dive into the theories ranging from ancient curses and cosmic portals to the startling admission of author Joseph Citro, who reveals how easily the line between terrifying fact and “spruced up” fiction can blur. Is the Bennington Triangle a supernatural magnet for tragedy, or a masterpiece of modern folklore? Join us as we step off the trail to find out—but be warned, out here, even your GPS won’t save you.

Join us for an intentional session of “Grease the Wheel,” a unique experience designed to deepen our connection with God and one another through the power of shared stories. In this video, we use a series of guided prompts to revisit the pivotal moments of our spiritual journeys—from childhood influences and first church memories to the seasons where we truly learned to trust God in the dark. These questions are more than just icebreakers; they are an invitation to build “spiritual monuments” that remind us of God’s faithfulness across the years. Whether you are a lifelong believer or just beginning to explore your faith, this conversation will challenge you to reflect on your God-view, celebrate your spiritual strengths, and embrace the community that makes us stronger as a family of faith.

In this mid-week session, we take a moment to step away from the noise of the world and reconnect with the God who is always on “speed dial.” Diving deeper into the “A Soggy Savior” delivery from “The Jesus Times” series, we explore the profound significance of Jesus’ baptism—the only moment in the New Testament where the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit appear together in one vivid snapshot. This study moves beyond Bible trivia to reveal a life-changing truth: you will always be frustrated with your mission until you find your identity in Christ. From embracing the messiness of faith to a special look at the upcoming “Jesus Tapes” film, this message is a call to reclaim your purpose, practice radical humility, and find refreshment in a community of faith.

In this third episode of the “Don’t Be an Esau” series, Jeff Dixon challenges the common misconception that Rebecca’s actions toward her sons were rooted in mere maternal favoritism. By diving into Genesis 26 and 27, we discover a woman driven not by emotion, but by deep spiritual discernment. While Esau viewed his choices—including his marriages to women outside the covenant—as personal matters, Rebecca understood that the atmosphere of the home determines the trajectory of the promise. She saw that Esau wasn’t just satisfying a momentary hunger; he was building a lifestyle that invited idolatry and rejected his spiritual legacy. This episode serves as a sobering reminder for us today: you cannot honor God with your mouth while rejecting Him with the structures of your life. It is time to stop asking God to fit into your world and instead allow your spiritual commitment to be the center around which your entire culture revolves. Don’t let your “appetites” move you away from your inheritance—learn how to build a life that reflects the value of who God created you to be.
