Join Jeff Dixon in The Carpenter Shop as we explore how to move from spiritual dryness to a vibrant, flowing faith. Drawing from Psalm 87:7 (“All my springs are in you”), we uncover the profound truth that our deepest source of life, joy, and character—our “springs”—are found in God. Learn how the Holy Spirit can become a river flowing within, developing love, joy, peace, and the full character of Christ in you. If you’re ready to become the best version of yourself, it’s time to let God work.

What are the essential components of a faith that endures? We explore this through the lens of “Doubting Thomas” in John 20, examining the courage to risk, the refusal of secondhand belief, and the power of asking hard questions. This devotional sets the stage for an open Q&A where we address your theological queries, from discerning true Christianity to interpreting current events through a biblical lens (including questions about figures like Trump and end times). Join us for a session designed to strengthen your understanding and encourage robust faith.

Welcome to “Walk With Me.” In this episode, Jeff Dixon invites you to explore a curious piece of history: the theft of Albert Einstein’s brain. While scientists searched for physical proof of his genius, the real answer was simpler, yet profound. Learn how Einstein’s journey, and even this strange event, points to a powerful truth about how God created YOU and the incredible things that happen when you embrace curiosity.

Ever tried to stifle a laugh during a really quiet church moment? You’re not alone!

From rogue bodily sounds during weddings to zippers-down during announcements and pastors taking a tumble on the platform, they’re sharing the hilarious side of church life. More importantly, they explore why a life in Christ is meant to be abundant and joyful, challenging the “green persimmon” stereotype. Can you be holy AND hilarious? We think so!
