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.

Before David faced Goliath, he was a shepherd who fought lions and bears. His confidence wasn’t in his own strength, but in his role as a protector—a role that God had prepared him for. In this message from The Carpenter Shop, Jeff Dixon connects David’s courage to Jesus’s powerful declaration in John 10: “I am the good shepherd.” Discover why the one who was willing to lay down his life for his sheep is more than capable of defeating any giant you face today. His track record is perfect.

What if John McClane was played not by Bruce Willis, but by a 73-year-old Frank Sinatra? It almost happened. In this video, we uncover the forgotten Hollywood contract that gave Ol’ Blue Eyes the first shot at the role, thanks to a prequel film most have never heard of.
But Sinatra’s “no” paved the way for an iconic hero and revealed something much deeper. Beyond the explosions and “Yippee-Ki-Yay,” Die Hard is a powerful story with profound spiritual lessons. Join us as we break down the six hidden themes of resilience, redemption, sacrifice, and faith that make this action classic an unlikely source of inspiration. You’ll never see this Christmas movie the same way again.
