We spend our lives searching for ways to make an impact. But what if the most powerful gift you can offer isn’t money, advice, or even your time? It’s hope. Using powerful lessons from the classic movie The Music Man and the profound wisdom of Psalm 62, this message reveals why hope is the ultimate medicine, incentive, and tonic for the human spirit. Learn how you can stop crushing spirits and start bringing the “76 trombones” to the people in your life who need a parade. It’s time to become a hope dealer.

Many Christians believe Halloween is the “devil’s day,” a celebration of darkness to be avoided at all costs. We couldn’t disagree more. On The Clash, we argue that surrendering any day to evil is a defeat. Instead, we’re taking it back. Join hosts Chris Whaley and Jeff Dixon as they break down the Christian case for celebrating—and redeeming—Halloween. Learn how we’re turning a day of fear into a platform for faith with our immersive outreach event, “Face the Fear,” and why we believe engaging the culture is more powerful than condemning it. This episode might make you uncomfortable, but we guarantee it won’t be boring.

In a world filled with noise and distraction, how do we recognize the one voice that truly matters? Drawing from John 10:14, this message explores the profound, personal relationship God invites us into. Using a powerful analogy of a trainer and his loyal dogs, we learn what it means to be so attuned to the Shepherd’s voice that we can distinguish it from any other.
Discover the peace and security that comes from knowing you are not just a face in the crowd, but you are personally known, loved, and called by name by the Creator of the universe. It’s time to listen closely.

It makes copies, right? But the story of the Xerox machine is one of the most powerful illustrations of the Christian journey you’ll ever hear. It began with an inventor, Chester Carlson, whose deep pain sparked a revolutionary idea that everyone told him was worthless.
In this episode of “Seriously,” we trace Carlson’s incredible path from a painful, dead-end job to becoming a multimillionaire, only to make his new life goal to die a poor man. Host Jeff Dixon connects the dots between this amazing piece of history and our own spiritual lives—from being a “copy” of Christ to finding God’s calling in our suffering and persevering when everyone else tells us to quit. You’ll never look at an office copier the same way again. Seriously.

The stuff that goes on in our head is wilder than a three ring circus and more dangerous than being locked in a cage with a wild animal. The reality is, even though we often don’t realize and remember it is that God loves us so much He does not want our lives to be defined by stinking thinking – He made our brains – He can retrain our brains – and He is the Thought Tamer
