In this session, we unpack the power of wisdom—specifically the discipline of waiting when we feel the urge to act. We discuss how “holy waiting” allows God to work in ways our impulsive reactions cannot. From navigating stressful personnel reviews to finding peace in the midst of chaos, we explore why slowing down is often the most productive move you can make. Join us as we continue our “Rise Above” series and discover how true champions are defined by their capacity to serve and their willingness to let God lead.

Join Jeff Dixon for the gripping conclusion of our three-part series on Dudleytown, America’s most infamous “cursed” city. While the stories of madness and tragedy have haunted history for generations, this episode moves beyond the ghost stories to uncover the profound spiritual lessons hidden within the myth. We explore how to navigate generational curses through the freedom of Christ, the importance of grounding our worldview in truth rather than sensationalism, and how to find God’s light even in our darkest valleys. Finally, we address the modern-day “curse” of Dudleytown: the disrespect shown to neighbors by thrill-seekers who ignore boundaries. Whether you believe the legends or not, discover how these stories can shape us into more grounded, loving, and faithful followers of Jesus.

In this episode of The Clash, Jeff Dixon and Dr. Chris Whaley tackle a topic that most people are terrified to discuss: end-of-life decisions. Joined by author and gerontology expert Hattie Bryant, the team explores the “medical-industrial complex” and why so many Christians struggle to navigate the final season of life with the peace and clarity our faith promises. Drawing from painful personal experiences and rigorous research, Addie exposes why our current culture of “aggressive intervention” often conflicts with biblical truth and explains why choosing the right healthcare proxy—regardless of family expectations—is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. This is a must-watch conversation for anyone who wants to ensure their final chapter is defined by soul care, not just medical procedure. Don’t let your legacy be decided by default; tune in to learn how to prepare for the finish line with grace and intentionality.

Do you find yourself serving God with a heavy heart, or are you truly excited about the work He has called you to do? In this episode from the Carpenter Shop, we dive into the book of Ezra to unpack a vital truth about Christian service: diligence. Drawing from the wisdom of Watchman Nee, we explore why “working for God” shouldn’t feel like a favor we are doing for Him, but a joyful response to the benefits He loads us with daily. Whether you’re feeling burned out or just looking for a fresh perspective on your purpose, join us as we discuss why the body of Christ is essential to our journey and how to rediscover the gladness that makes serving Him a privilege rather than a burden.

We often project our own human frailties onto God, assuming that if we forget things, He must too. But the Bible tells a different story. Join Jeff Dixon as he tackles the difficult question: “Is it possible that God has forgotten about me?” Through a deep dive into Scripture, we learn that God’s nature is vastly different from ours—He doesn’t just know our needs, He is inseparable from our lives. If you’ve been struggling with feelings of abandonment, this message is for you. You are never forgotten by the One who created you.
