In a world that often feels like it’s spinning out of control, finding a moment of true calm can feel impossible. In the conclusion of the “What a Pain” series, Jeff Dixon explores how the chaos we face today mirrors the tension and uncertainty of the first century. While we often search for peace in our external circumstances, Jesus offers a different kind of security—one that isn’t dependent on our surroundings. By diving into the promise of Deuteronomy 31:8, this video reminds us that we are never forsaken and that even in the midst of deep pain, we don’t have to face it alone. Discover how to shift your focus from the storm to the One who stands with you through it.

In this moving and often hilarious session, Jeff Dixon shares a pivotal story from his youth about the night a mentor challenged him to stop “all talk” and actually get to know the people he claimed to love. Moving from the basketball court to the prayer meeting, Jeff illustrates a profound truth: the strength of a church lies in authentic relationships, not isolated compartments. Watch as the community uses a “Wheel of Connection” to share everything from dumb injuries and fashion fails to unexpected spiritual lessons. It’s a powerful reminder that to truly love the Body of Christ, we must first be brave enough to be known.

Did you know that one of the most beloved children’s hymns in history actually began as a Civil War ballad? In this episode of “Don’t Get Hit in the Head with a Hymnal,” we dive into the fascinating history of “Jesus Loves the Little Children.” Discover how the musical genius George Frederick Root—who originally published patriotic Union songs under a pseudonym to protect his classical reputation—composed a melody for a soldier’s song titled “Tramp, Tramp, Tramp.” Learn how this tune, originally written about a prisoner of war, was transformed by lyricist Charles Herbert Woolston into the timeless Sunday School classic we still sing today. It is a remarkable journey from the battlefield to the church pew that you won’t want to miss!

In this high-energy episode of The Clash, hosts Jeff Dixon and Chris Whaley welcome a true icon of the squared circle: WWE Hall of Famer and multi-time World Heavyweight Champion, Diamond Dallas Page (DDP). At an age when most athletes are looking toward retirement, DDP was just beginning his legendary climb, proving that with relentless work ethic and God’s grace, it is never too late to reinvent yourself. Page opens up about the “emotional gravity” of being told he was too old and too “over the top,” his early days as a manager for legends like Scott Hall, and the miraculous recovery from a broken back that birthed the global phenomenon of DDP Yoga. From the creation of the devastating Diamond Cutter to a chance encounter with Mel Gibson, this conversation explores the intersection of faith, grit, and the determination to never “tap out.” Whether you are a lifelong wrestling fan or someone searching for the spark to start your own life-changing comeback, this interview will challenge you to see your obstacles as opportunities for growth.

by Church @ 434 | Sep 1, 2026 | Ignite Gratitude
In the second installment of the “Ignite Gratitude” series, Jeff Dixon moves beyond the science of thankfulness to explore the ultimate source of truth: the Holy Scriptures. While many view thankfulness as a mere emotion, Jeff reveals how the Bible establishes gratitude as a consistent spiritual mandate from Leviticus to Revelation. Through the examples of King David, the Prophet Daniel, and the Apostle Paul, we see a pattern of worship defined by thanksgiving. Most importantly, we look at the life of Jesus, who gave thanks not only for miracles but even in the shadow of the cross. This episode challenges us to stop waiting for the “feeling” of gratitude and instead embrace it as a biblical command and a daily choice. Discover how being rooted in Christ leads to an overflowing heart and prepare yourself for the practical applications coming in the final part of this series.
